Noel Gallagher's statement re: Johnny Marr

From Ken Joyner:

Noel and Liam Gallagher held a press conference concerning the departure of Bonehead, and now Guigsy, from Oasis. Someone asked a question about Johnny Marr as a replacement for Bonehead:

Q: What about Johnny Marr?

Noel: Johnny who? Johnny's doing his own thing at the moment.


A short statement, but one nonetheless, and a little bit relevant to the site here. I pulled this from the transcript located at NME.com.

Noel said that the criteria for a new band mate were, "…they've got be taller than me, have nice taste in shoes and a decent haircut, and not Man United fans and if they can do that they're sweet." Does Johnny fit any of these criteria? Is he taller than Noel or does it just seem that way because his feet are so big? You know what they say, "big feet, big…"

Johnny is too good for the likes of the Gallegar's. Does, "you mean nothing to me" ring a bell? Give Marr a break, man!

Well, Bernard, if Marr was good enough for your latest @#!!!ty album, he certainly is good enough for the Gallegars(sic!)
