Tony Wilson

I'm posting about this a bit late - there are countless tributes to Tony all over the net - but I just wanted to add my condolences about his untimely death. Wilson will always have my utmost respect, mainly because of his involvment with Joy Division and then later on New Order. Both bands have always meant a huge amount to me, especially Joy Division, and without Wilson, they would have had a lesser impact on the world. Anyway, it's a sad time for anyone who ever came into contact with Tony Wilson or the music that he championed. Why do the good ones always go first?

I was in a supermarket when I found out he was dead. They were playing Step On by the Happy Mondays over the loudspeakers at the time. Spooky. Tony would have been proud. Top geezer, he'll be missed

Absolutley, one of the most important people for me. Why are all the great people, first John Peel, now Wilson, dying so young?
