Thin Lizzy, who feature John Sykes on vocals completed their UK tour on Thursday Night (Dec 13th) at the Hammersmith Apollo in London.
Live photos from the bands set can be viewed below.
Speaking to Komodo Rock, John Sykes said "This incarnation of the
band is more about remembering Phill, and paying respect to his music
and legacy. That's really what it's about, it's not about doing new
music. It's about his legacy and his music being timeless, and what a
great gift to all of us, through his music and song witting. Phil was a
one off sort of giant, if you ever met him he had the presence of like
a thousand men. He was a born rock star.
"Trust me, he was a one off. I've been the game for a long long time,
and I've never met anyone like him. The fact that we go out today, and
there's a lot of youngsters in the audience. I say to them, 16 or 17
year old kids, how did you get turned onto Thin Lizzy, and a lot of
them say we grew up with it with our parents. It's amazing to see the
younger audience come out and be so into it. It's a testament to how
great Phil's songs are and how timeless they are."
