Fun Trivia

Simon Wolstencroft was Marr's first choice to be the drummer in The Smiths. But he thought Morrissey was a cunt & joined The Fall instead.

I'd say something about him making a bad decision there, but you'd probably disagree

Choosing between Moz and Mark E Smith would be like choosing between STDs to me.

About to download 'Meat is Murder' after picking up their greatest hits a few weeks ago and really liking it. From what I have heard so far, great band.

Super cool that's a great album, my second fav after The Queen Is Dead. You really need to get that album as well.
