Big fan (except for the unrepentant alcoholism). Saw him live with the Pogues in the late 80s. The Pogues had a great run of three consecutive albums before he totally fell apart. Shocked he lived as long as he did. He looked like he was on death's door in his 30s.
Last words to fans?

They'll take you to Cloughprior and shove you in the ground--
You'll stick your head back out and shout 'We'll have another round.'"
