Johnny Marr - A Correction

rockandrolltedium:

We recently posted the following story on Rock and Roll Tedium, submitted by gobify

“It was a Tuesday. It was raining. I was out for a jog. 

Ahead, I saw a man who looked just like Johnny Marr running towards me. (He was also jogging. He wasn’t running because he was scared or escaping or anything. He was just jogging). As he got closer, I realised that the person jogging towards me really looked like Johnny Marr. “He really looks like Johnny Marr,” I said to myself. A few seconds later, the truth was ascertained. It WAS Johnny Marr. “It IS Johnny Marr,” I said inwardly.

I jogged towards him. He jogged towards me. As we jogged past each other, I raised my eyebrows and said, ‘Alright,’ in what I thought was a chummy way.

He raised his eyebrows back, acknowledging me. 

Then we both jogged on”

Mr Marr has kindly emailed Rock and Roll Tedium to point out that he doesn’t jog, he runs.

So now you know.

I’m sorry, Johnny, and I hope this new post clears things up. Thanks for taking the time to get in touch. As well as your considerable achievements in music, you can also be proud of the fact that you are the first actual musician to exercise his right to reply on this blog, and you made my day in the process. Nice one!
