Johnny Marr just released a new album, Playland, and Noel Gallagher just announced that he's got a new album due out in March 2015, Chasing Yesterday, on which Marr will appear. So it doesn't come as a huge surprise that Noel showed up at London's Brixton Academy to join Marr onstage for a pair of songs: covers of Iggy Pop's "Lust For Life," and the Smiths' "How Soon Is Now." I've long been harboring an idle observation that Noel and Marr are physically morphing into two separate versions of the same exact person, the way old married couples do, and seeing them on stage together does little to dispute this observation. I like to imagine them sitting back with a cup of tea and bitching about their respective exes (ex-singers, I mean). "Thank god we don't have to deal with all that anymore," they must say. It must be nice. Anyway, you can watch footage of both "Lust For Life" and "How Soon Is Now" below.
