According to Independent.ie, 25 years after the death of legendary THIN LIZZY singer Phil Lynott, his mother, Philomena Lynott, will officially launch an exhibition of his memorabilia as part of the Hot Press Music Show in the RDS in Dublin this weekend.
Along with four guitars owned by Lynott - and on which he wrote Thin Lizzy hits including 'The Boys Are Back In Town' and 'Dancing In The Moonlight' - there will also be tour jackets worn by the singer, flight cases used by Thin Lizzy, lyric books and Lynott's shares in Manchester United Football Club on display this Saturday and Sunday.
"The shares were a birthday present from me to Philip. You couldn't have gotten him a better gift because if Philip hadn't been a musician, he would have been a professional footballer playing for Manchester United, his favourite team," Philomena told the Irish Independent.
