Razorlight refuse to continue Dylan boast - NME.com

Excerpt:

However, the singer does think his band have joined the same league as one music legend, Morrissey, after both acts played at the same time at this year's V Festival.

"I was amazed at V Festival when I was told there were 45,000 people watching us and 20,000 watching Morrissey," he explained. "I was staggered. There was a chant of 'Who the fuck is Morrissey?', which for someone who grew up as a massive fan of The Smiths was interesting. You feel a bit sorry for someone who was your hero, but at the same time really pleased people are getting into your stuff."

Moronic and humourless careerist Johnny Borrell, currently orally servicing the american market, has been accused of saying his band Razorlight are 'better than Morrissey'.

I'm no fan of the guy but I don't think it is exactly what he said, so don't sharpen the knives just yet. Make your own mind up here:

I'm going to put together all of the Morrissey (not smiths) tabs/chords I can get a hold of on one site (a free one, of course).

So...I'd like some help. Can anyone who might have them send me any tabs/chords they've produced themselves or give me permision to use ones they've put up on other tab sites? You'll all receive full credit for any help you can give.

Also, since I'd rather not get in trouble with the copyright police, if anyone has any morrissey photos they'd be willing to allow me to use, could they let me know?
