Before rock band Thin Lizzy played the King’s Club at the Queen’s Court hotel in Bangor on July 27th, 1974 (Thin Lizzy Guide), they took to the water in order to take in the town. They were photographed in the act by Dublin photographer Liam Quigley (Indo profile), and the picture (see it at Thin Lizzy Guide) was turned into a mural by Friz (ig) in Crosby Street, Bangor, last year.
One of the band’s album covers can be seen on a wall in east Belfast – see The Rocker – and original guitarist Eric Bell (who was also a member of Them) is featured in a mural of famous faces from the area – see Inspiring Belfast.
