Madonna, not my top idol but she’s definitely up there in terms of my admiration for her early stuff.

I had to think really hard as any of the idols I had in my early years are all gone already - Freddie Mercury, Prince...

Bruce Springsteen actually, when he goes, that’s gonna be tough.

Vince McMahon or my Dad.

Why ask about people dying?

Why not just ask everyone who they idolise?

Carl Sagan, but he died nearly 24 years ago.

Yeah, if it's not someone I don't personally know, i'd be like "Aw, that's a shame" if I like them, and move on as if nothing happened.

I suppose if Sony stopped making PlayStations I'd be more upset.

When I was around 9 or 10 when I played in goal I idolised Ray Clemence who died today. I thought he was fantastic and used to love to watch him play.

RIP Ray

Two for one.

He is still going.

So whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because its the best thing going today.

Billy Idol

Strumms

Idol might have been a bit strong but Joe Strummer was somebody who I’d thought a lot of. A big fan of him as a musician, songwriter and bloke... obviously more known for his work with the Clash but as in his later career his band the Mescaleros were absolutely sublime, on record and on stage.... the newer Mescaleros stuff stood perfectly next to the the odd Clash classic in the set... he’d have old punks, skater kids, indie heads, Rasta dudes and everyone in between from 18-55 just pogoing away, wanting the newer stuff over the Clash tunes..... me and a friend ventured over to see him in Liverpool academy in 2002, turned out to be his final show.. he died a month later..

He produced ‘Hells Ditch’ and from memory I think he went on one tour with them.

Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. Two cool and classy guys. I wish they could live forever.

i was always under the impression that Strummer was to support Pearl Jam (they are big fans) in Dublin in 2006 - As we got Paddy Casey instead !?!

To be honest , i never ever checked when Joe died, so if it was in 2002 , it was hardly him !!!
So there goes that story !!
