Thin Lizzy guitarist and Hove resident Gary Moore has died at the age of 58.
The Valance Gardens resident was found dead in his hotel room while on holiday in the Costa del Sol.
He was a regular at the Neptune Inn, on Kingsway, and played a charity concert at the Old Market Hall in April last year.
Originally from Belfast Mr Moore was renowned as a blues rock guitarist and was twice a member of Thin Lizzy, as well as releasing a number of solo albums.
Thin Lizzy founding member Brian Downey said: "I am in total shock. He will always be in my thoughts and prayers and I just can't believe he is gone."
