Lowdown Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Too many have fallen by the way-side this year and last. And they all have connections to the mighty Tatts. Pete Wells(who I've had the distinction of supporting and jamming with),Ian Rilen,Lobby Loyde - they lived and played hard. RIP mate. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainment/music/rose-tattoo-guitarist-mick-cocks-dies-from-cancer-months-after-benefit-gig/story-e6frf9hf-1225813046429 [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE] Funny bastard he was. Listen to it for a good laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowdown Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 maybe because no one has a clue who this person is.. If you've never heard of Rose Tattoo mate you oughtta pull your head out of your bum and start doing some studying. G n' R for one owe their sound to them. The world doesn't revolve around America,contrary to popular belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hector Arcadius Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I have to admit that I first read about Rose Tatoo in this Lounge, a couple of days ago. I admit my ignorance and assure you that I will look up their work, as soon as I get a chance. RIP from my side as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
