Nicky Wire: 'I got a postcard from Morrissey when I was a teenager'

[whiterevolver]

I once broke my finger wrestling one of my friends, do you think James and co will let me guest vocal on the next album (if there is one?)

Incidentally, I hope all those people who used to moan that the NME never covered the Manics are proud of themselves - now they are covering non-stories like this. Must be a slow news day in the world of music.

I honestly thought what the article referred to was Nicky's mum writing to the artists saying Nicky couldn't make it to the gigs because he felt sick, the type of reason you'd give if your son had been missing from school, for example.
