How is Danny Kirwans health these days?

[DavidMn]

I know he hasnt been well mentally and physically for quite a while but I havent heard any updates lately. Anyone know how hes doing? where hes living? Id be interested to know.:nod:

Same as it's always been: fair to midland, but still better than it was years back. In DK's case, no news is both good and bad news - if you get my drift. Alas.

Has anyone actually inquired or observed or know?

I was watching "Like it this way" on youtube recently and one of the commentators said that Danny had recently moved to Sweden with a girlfriend as St Mungo's Hostel closed down... of course, who really knows where that came from.

St Mungo's Hostel(s) is(are) still operating. The Covent Garden site where Kirwan did live, moved to Endell Street some time ago. They have facilities in several parts of London, having just opened a new place in Lewisham.

Having watched many Green/Kirwan era FM videos on Youtube, I've seen anonymous comments stating Kirwan is in Sweden, and playing the guitar again(???)

i remember that after the splinter group split, pete moved temporarily to sweden and lived with a female friend. around that time he played in norway on the same bill with john mayall and with the british blues all stars. this was the beginning also of the connection that led to jeremy playing up in norway, or have i scrambled that in my brain?

it would be fantastic news if danny were playing again and living in sweden. and a funny coincidence. zero
