Yep, confirmed. 65 years old. Possibly saw him live (with The Pogues, The Popes and solo) more than any other.

Lucky to see him live with The Pogues a few times and supporting The Clash with The Nips. Iconic and will be missed.

While Fairytale of New York will now understandably be getting an outing, it's worth recalling some of MacGowan's many other masterpieces.

Re: Births Deaths And Marriages
It’s kinda curious / ironic that an anti-airport expansion group in Essex, who fought Darling tooth and nail, only last night voted to begin to wind down its mainstream activities.

Brigit Forsyth, actress age 83 - OMG was she that age.
Thelma in Likely Lads and Madge in Still open all hours, a great comic actress

Re: Births Deaths And Marriages
Benjamin Zephaniah is dead.
A brain tumour apparently, which was only diagnosed 8 weeks ago.
