Anthony Wilson R.I.P.

For anyone who is a fan of the fantastic Manchester music scene that revolved around Factory Records and the Hacienda, today is a very sad day. We lost the genius that is Anthony Wilson - the great man behind awesome bands such Happy Mondays and New Order. He was a brilliant vibrant character and more recently an expert social commentator. He had been battling cancer since the beginning of the year and lost his fight earlier today. We'll miss him lots.
