That was a good read, thanks for sharing.
I’ve been listening to The Messenger at least once a day since finally biting the bullet and downloading it off iTunes last week. I kept hearing how great it was and slept on it for some reason. I wish I didn’t, but I guess it’s never too late.
(Disclaimer: I hate to be that guy) My friend received a watermarked copy of the new album to review and said that it’s even better than The Messenger. I can’t wait til October.

Got to admit that Johnny looks in amazing shape in that photo. Sure, we all know he dyes his hair, but that photo looks like it could have been taken 5 years after 'Strangeways' - not 27 years. The running/vegan diet/no booze lifestyle is obviously working well for him.
