    Oddly I was listening to Bat out of Hell 2 when I went for a walk before the news broke that day. You can really hear his musical theatre background in so much of what he wrote. Wall of sound meets Andrew Lloyd Webber with motorbikes... Ah well, another one gone.

    Homeless campaigner Anthony Fylnn. He done excellent work for the homeless of the city. He was terrible young to pass.

    Don Everly, harmonising with Phil again after seven years.

    Got to see them supporting Simon and Garfunkel in the RDS 16 or 17 years ago. I like S&G, but The Everlys... magic.

    Edit - forgot the link

    Oh wow. That's a big in. Saw him playing in Croke Park only what - 3 years ago?

    A real passing the baton moment I think

    Busy weekend for the Grim Reaper...

    Lee Scratch Perry... Bunny Wailer this year, Toots Hibbert last year - that glorious reggae generation of the 60s and 70s is growing smaller all the time.

    I was at that gig too. Didn't think I'd get another chance to see them live.

    Sad news. Great character in Only Fools but I am not sure the spinoff The Green Green Grass worked.
