Can anybody tell the where-abouts of Alfie Merrigan who at one time played drums with the Skyrockets in the early 60`s ?

Hi Ernie,

Alfie is still playng away in Dublin. I was talking to him a couple of weeks ago in the Submarine Bar where he was playing with the Jim Farley Band.

He hasn't changed a bit and still looks like a 16 year old.

I don't know what he's on but I'll take a bottle of it !!

Regards

Barry
