I met Tony Wilson very briefly in NYC this past June, and it more or less made my year. Today we say goodbye to him. because cancer sux.I would probably not have the job I do without Tony Wilson's overall influence on the music industry.He, rob gretton and ian curtis are finally all partying together at the big Hacienda in the sky.the lovely alan mcgee eulogizes him here.Below is a clip from a Grenada TV special on Tony that was released around the same time as 24-Hour Party People.Lee Hazelwood and Tony Wilson in the same week. fucking hell. This is just like last year's Arthur Lee/Syd Barret 1-2 punch. : Factory Records catalog number. FacOUT?I can only imagine that the Hacienda 25th anniversary party will be the most bittersweet rave in the history of manchester. Pills thrills and bellyaches for all.
