Johnny Marr: 'I Haven't Got Time To Feud With Morrissey'

September 22, 2009
Johnny Marr: 'I Haven't Got Time To Feud With Morrissey'Johnny Marr has said he has not got the time to feud with his former Smiths band mate Morrissey.

Marr, who now plays guitar in The Cribs, also ruled out a reunion of his former band in the immediate future.

“I like The Smiths songs, but I like playing with two guitars and writing new songs,” he told the Norwich Evening News.

“Unfortunately a reunion would go against both those things.”

When asked about his relationship with Morrissey, Marr replied: “It's not necessarily the case that we're not talking. We have email.

“We worked on that 'Sound of the Smiths' [compilation] together. That came out about a year ago.

He added: “Who's got time for a feud? Right now I have got screwdrivers inside guitars, my car broke down yesterday... I've got no time for a feud.”

The Smiths, whose original line up also included Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce, split in 1987.

Each member has always maintained that the chances of a reunion were unlikely.
