Check out our new social media intern. Dapper lookin’ fellow, isn’t he?
Only kidding – the man pictured manning NME’s Twitter feed above is, of course, the one and only Johnny Marr, who this afternoon (September 19) answer readers’ questions in a revealing 30 minutes. In case you missed it, here’s the best bits, including the former Smith’s take on today’s Scottish independence referendum, returning to the Cribs, the possibility of a project with Noel Gallagher and more. And once you’re done with that, there’s the small matter of his new single to listen to, from upcoming second solo album ‘Playland’. Enjoy…
