    A friend of Gers, the lads from Fun FM invited me to the station for the tribute night.... they did an amazing set, playing all his favorite tunes from right back in the day to present time. Telling me stories that I have never heard before and had me laughing for hours... Lee, Mellow D, Dano and Al Byrne, he would have been blown away by your praise, and all the people that were texting in their love. He will never be forgotten and I know that he wont be far away whenever you drop one of his tunes into your shows... Thanks a bunch.


    I am also from Cabra, and although I never met Bippa, when I was there at the weekend, I was told of the tradegy, and much love is sent to his poor mother, it will take alot of effort from friends and family and alot of time for her to reach anything near normality again, but Cabra is the place where she can definately count on neighbours to rally round.... I am very sorry for your loss.

    I second that, just had Bippa's dad in my house he called up for a cuppa (my brother in law) and he said everybody is really rallying around his mother, a reall community down there in Cabra by the sounds of it.

    This lad dying has really hit me deep,although I only knew him to see and say hello to,we did share an obsession for oldskool tunes,and Im sure if we had of know each other better we would have been buddies,I recently moved back to Cabra,I grew up there,but always hated the place and never gave the place anytime,never associated with the area,was always kind of ashamed to have been from there,so have been living elsewhere for past few years,but as of lately,I have had my son,and I want to bring him up somewhere with a good community and friendly people,and I realise now what a gem Cabra is,so Ive moved back home,Bippas death had such a huge effect on the area,its amazing to see how everyone is so deeply affected by this lad dying,I know this is nothing do with dance music,but it amazing how music can bring us together and help us cope with loss,this tune is case in point :cool:

    Don't mean to drag up an old thread, just thought i should mention that i saw "RIP Bippa" written on a wall outside Dalymount Park this evening- thought it was a nice gesture if he was a Bohs supporter.

    was actually playing my PS3 for the first time in months recently and he's still there. Also observed some of his handy work while waiting for the train at Broombridge the other day :D

    :pac:

    Hey Lads

    I just wanted to let you know that today Bippa's ashes were buried alongside his Grandparents in Glasnevin, he has reached his final resting place, and just for some good luck, I noticed that one of his friends put a cd into the soil, I am sure it was full of Old Skool :)

    RIP Bippa xxx
