I saw him on his “death bed” tour in 2015.. when he had fought off the cancer the first time around. Definitely a character. - his acting in GoT’s questionable... like most of the cast.

Tis a damn shame. People like him should be given special dispensation to live forever.

Just read the Guardian obit which tells that he first wanted to play guitar after seeing The Shadows and there it is; the Shadows’ walk!

^^^ all be it somewhat more 'edgy'!

The first time I saw him in concert and saw him move I thought he was on wheels 😊
