Tommy and all his family and friend's are in our prayers. With out him the culture of Ireland would not be so strong! The Fuchsia Band and all in Fuchsialand
Godspeed, Tommy. A shame we never got you to KCIF.
I saw Tommy at Dublin Irish Fest a few years back. He was amazing! Never saw one guy with a banjo have such command over an audience.
