I wouldn't have been a fan of his musical tastes but my condolances to his family and friends, one of the worst times of year to lose someone (not that any are good)

RIP.

Of course you're trying to be smart, it's quite clear from the post's above you he was a D.J for FM104. This thread was started I'm sure for people to place their condolences, if you never heard of the man that's fine but posting the fact just makes you appear quite petty.

RIP, I was a big fan of his broadcasts.

Very sad to hear about Tony. Rest in peace.

Ian Dempsey paid a nice tribute to him this morning.

Look, I don't want to derail the thread, but I also want to make it clear that I - like oppenheimer1 - have never heard of the guy... I gather now that he was a DJ on a local radio station in Dublin & yes, it's sad that he died, but I found plissken's post quite unfair as he was clearly trying to make oppenheimer1 look petty for asking a simple question.
