A local Nenagh Councillor believes that an annual music festival in Nenagh would be a great way to honor the memory of the late Shane MacGowan.
No decision is going to be made in the short term on a memorial to the singer whose funeral took place locally earlier this month, but Cllr Morris says that various options will be discussed with Shane’s family when the time is right
”It’s time to slow down kind of and work with the family. The family are grieving at the moment," he said.
”But I think we should honor him with a festival. Around November would be a great time to honor him and I think we need to do something because his music lives on. But certainly, people would love to have a festival in his name in the area.”
