Willie Loughrey AKA Rock Stewart. Great local entertainer in 80s

To die before the person you impersonate! Seen him a good few times around the clubs in the 80's he also did a family wedding certainly entertaining punters loved it.
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

He was doin the Elk one time and some big new song had came out. He had it wrote in chalk on something at front of stage so me in my drunken wisdom decided to rub it out. Got caught but didnt get kicked out. Result.

Remember great nights in the Glenavon Hotel in the 80's. Summer of 69 was the big song

A lot of the ladies thought he was creepy if I remember right but I found him very entertaining. He lived in Cookstown for a while a few years ago.
