what sad news to wake up to today .
I was very fortunate to meet Andy in person almost to the day in May 2004 at the Salford Lads club in Manchester . Played a small acoustic set for a dedicated bunch of us which was arranged in advance . Got lots of photo's from that day and have used my current avatar on here with him from that day for a number of years now
some nice words from both Morrissey and Marr today amongst the tributes flooding in

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Andy Rourke after a lengthy illness with pancreatic cancer.

Andy will be remembered as a kind and beautiful soul by those who knew him and as a supremely gifted musician by music fans.
