It’s so sad to hear about Quincy Jones. When he signed us to his label, he made us feel so welcome - inviting us to dinner at his home every time we were in town. He made us big in America. He was so humble & sweet that you immediately fell in love with him.
Pete Shelley - a true gent!
He helped us so much at the start of our career out of a sheer love for all things punk. Without Pete & the Buzzcocks I would probably still be working at the Docks. RIP mate. X
Mark Lanegan was a lovely man. He led a wild life that some of us could only dream of. He leaves us with fantastic words and music! Thank god that through all of that he will live forever. RIP Mark. Sleep well. Love Hooky. X
66! I can’t quite believe it myself… Thank you for all of your wishes and kindest regards...
I have one wish for you all too - a long, long, healthy & happy life. Hopefully together! Cheers! Love Hooky 👴🏻 🎸 ❤️
Will you still need me, will you still feed me... obviously! Colin the Caterpillar makes his 64th appearance. Lovely birthday - spoilt rotten again! Thanks for all the wonderful messages. Hooky ‘20. X
Amazing to see this beautiful mural of Ian today by @Akse_P19 on Port Street here in Manchester to raise awareness for #WorldMentalHealthDay this coming Saturday.
Will be talking about it tomorrow night on @BBCNWT!

Such sad news about Janice Long. She was always a great friend and a great supporter of our music. She was a lovely lady and a pleasure to be around. RIP. ❤️
