5 or 6 years ago I was walking on Dame Street and passed Christy Dignam. Never spoke to him but I smiled and nodded at him in recognition. He flashed a big smile back in my direction. And we passed each other.

Thinking of that moment this morning brought a tear to my eye.

Memory's a funny thing, isn't it?

RIP Christy Dignam. In mid-May 1989 I should’ve been more focused on revising for the Leaving Cert exams but instead I was heading up to the SFX to see Something Happens and Christy Dignam. Christy was out of Aslan at the time and my memory of this solo gig is that he was a huge, dynamic, natural talent on a stage that was simply too tiny for him. Anyway, some great memories coming up tonight, thank you Christy. #ChristyDignam #Christy #Aslan #RIP #Ireland #Dublin #SFX #Dublin #Mastodaoine

Mark this to listen to later when you have some time. #Aslan #ChristyDignam #Cancer #Death #Life #Ireland

Very poignant to see #CrazyWorld & #AslanThePlatinumCollection charting on iTunes tonight. Shows the special place @DignamChristy &
@OfficialAslan have in the hearts of the Irish people.

Sending comfort and warmth to #ChristyDignam and his family. Christy is such an open-hearted and tenacious person, his talent had to shine through. Such a joy to work with and to continue listening to. I hope you are feeling the love. Thank you for the gift of knowing you and #Aslan
