I saw him at the 930 club in DC about 6/7 years ago.
He was incredible and did “How soon is now” great justice.
I’ve got a Johnny F**king Marr T’shirt somewhere from that show 😁

Great guitarist
A fantastic talent and an all-round decent bloke.
Decent bloke, great guitarist, nice hair but possibly the most boring autobiography I've ever read.
I thought that we might be signing him, we might as well, I'm sure Marr featured as a speedy winger in Billy The Fish (Viz) that'd be enough for Mehmet to offer a 3 year deal.
I didn't want anything sensational but I thought he was ridiculously nice about everyone, even people who had fecked him over. There was lots of detail about a particular type of guitar and items if clothing he was wearing when ...
The other problem I had was the whole of the final third was taken up with him walking into a series of bands and transforming them into their most successful period, from Modest Mouse to the Cribs. It was very self congratulatory I thought. Even if there was some truth to it.
I just finished the autobiography of another Mancunian musical icon, John Cooper Clarke and it was wonderful, but I'm afraid the other Johnny left me a bit cold.
