Ah man, that's a shame. I used to watch that silly quiz show he did on Channel 4.

oh dear what a pity never mind

i'm sure there are RSS feeds you can subscribe to which keep one instantly informed of the latest deaths among anyone remotely music-industry-related, so why don't you stop thinking you are somehow unique in that you read the news and faff off and stop bothering the rest of us with this shit.

Actually, I found out about this particular piece of news through this friend, and am quite interested in the history and legacy of Factory Records so found this post rather informative. Just because there are things you arent interested in doesnt mean that others, even if its just me, are.

Christ, that was a bit of a surprise. Not the most pleasant way to wake up on a Saturday morning.

Sad news. Guy i used to work with knew him well and described him as a "twat it was impossible not to like."

He did his bit for D.I.Y. and it should be commended.

Just thinking of Coogan's portrayal of him in 24hr Party people. Quality.
