Took my son to see them when they played the market place in race week a few years back. They were his first live band, and inspired him to go on and play himself.

A sad loss, i first heard the Buzzcocks when i was 15yrs old on a album called Live At The Roxy and i loved them ever since. A brilliant song writer with a unmistakable voice. RIP Pete.

Very sad. One of the great British songwriters.

I met him about 10 years ago at a gig in London. He was a very chatty, pleasant bloke. He was constantly interrupted by people of all ages wanting a chat, photo or autograph and he could not have been more polite and patient with every single one of them.
