I'm a 67 year old bloke, who loves Wilko more the older I get.!!? RIP Wilko and Irene. ❤❤

[@michaelharrop8311]

His attitude towards his illness and facing death was so brave and inspiring. I am so thrilled that his great attitude and unbreakable spirit got the happy ending he deserves. Hope he has many more years of doing what he loves to do. Those doctors are exceptional!

[@pit2ryan3]

[@johnny0468]

love wilko,lucky enough to meet him n norman watt roy!!x

[@catherinecook2046]

only found dr feelgood 5 months ago (american) what a kick in the azz. should have been as big as any band then. After wilko left they were not the same. i know some think gipy was good. but the only song that was good was best in the world. milk and alcohol was lame, wilko might have saves that. thank god for the cds i got, just wish lee was still here.

[@mikeyconnor]

I was invited backstage by him when I was 4 because he was so surprised with how obsessed I was with him, every night I got my guitar and mimed him on my TV, he was really nice (so was Norman) and from what I remember he stayed with me for around 1 and a half hours. I still luv his music and I’m 12, so....it’s proof he’s a guy who fame hasn’t changed, he is so nice

[@paularora5086]

What a man, an inspiration...

[@madeleinehague648]

'Love you, Wilko! Keep on rocking in the free world!

[@MrTortureneverstops1]

Wilko, I saw you on stage in Brest (France) in '93, I hope I'll see you again ! You're a legend for the Brest city rockers !

[@MrTortureneverstops1]

Yes ! I'm gonna see you live this evening on the Vauban's stage ! Long live R'n'R and Wilko !

[@emmabourton1348]

Beautiful man :-) x

[@MBIKES21]

Brilliant guy.

[@tonydee9850]

What a nice guy,farewell sir.

[@jonnyrocket3659]

Wilko.. what a guy... his stage presence mesmerised me in the mid 70's when he played with Dr Feelgood, I just thought he was so cool, the way he moved across the stage like a manic crab.. and the crazy look on his face as he starred into the distance twitching his head left and right.. People have written about the birth of punk and the influences, like the New York CBGBs club and the Ramones, Television, Suicide etc.. but here in the UK we already had groundbreakers like Wilko Johnson.. and even if he likes it or not, I'm sure Wilko influenced many a UK start up punk band back in the mid/late 70's, and I'm sure even Ian Curtis was most likely a subscriber.

[@DokktorDeth]

Lovely, lovely man. Seen him play when I Iived in the UK. Can you come to Bangkok, Wilko?? :-)

[@tonystraightedgevegan4747]

Wonderful! What a top bloke

[@Chris-sd8mk]

[@mattcooper9026]

Fucking legend!

[@davidcarlton8579]

Little known fact: When the guy was wondering why Wilko wasn't dead yet, it was not in reference to his cancer, he was wondering how he wasn't murdered by pissed off Game of Thrones fans for killing Ned Stark!

[@greifinn24]

doctor said it kill me but he didnt say when. nice bite, nobody laughed though.

[@stephenlees1691]
