Never the less, it would be nice if you'd oblige us.

So, you want me to stick a cork up a dead Irish guitarist. May I ask why?

RIP Rory.

A true music legend!

EDIT:

P.S. Cork the city has nothing to do with the cork with one puts in a bottle of wine: it's an Anglicisation of the city's Gaelic name, An Corcaigh.

Glór na Gael! Hooray!

P.P.S. Rory's family moved there from Donnegal, where Gallagher is a very strong surname!

I don't want to shock you, but I fear both Brian Jones and Keith Moon might also have passed on.

And things don't look good health-wise for Jimi Hendrix either.

I'll keep you posted.
