The Cribs man claims he's nervous about playing Xfm's Winter Wonderland...

Johnny Marr has admitted to Xfm that he's going to be a bit nervous playing Xfm's Winter Wonderland show this year, because he wants to make his hometown show a good one.

Talking to Xfm's Pete Mitchell, Marr said, "I always get a little stressed out playing Manchester... my phone's going all the time from people I haven't seen for years, trying to get on the list at the last moment. But I want it to be really good, but my mind goes back to when I used to watch bands myself."

Johnny is headlining Xfm's Winter Wonderland show on December 8 with The Cribs. Tickets are on sale now at www.xfm.co.uk/gigs.
