Rochdale Rocker Dead?? 17:19 - Feb 2 with 8355 views

Hi was informed that the guy who knew to think he was Bruce Springteen and sing in Rochdale bus station and prior to that knew to sing outside the old cinema has died.
Can anyone confirm if this is true
He was a proper legend that man think his name was Ian

Can't confirm this but remember him well.

A recognisable local character.

Would you have Keith Hill back?

No queue in the rain to get into the old Cinema was complete without Bruce Springsteen performing live. A great character who was often better than the feature presentation.

Shame if its true..
As we had some entertaining evenings waiting outside the cinema and the bus station....
Wonder what his quitar is now worth....

My all time favourite Dale player Mr Lyndon Symmonds

Remember him singing Bros many moons ago. Currently sat in a Dublin bar trying to work out which song he sang (not one of the better known ones apparently!!)

Edit - the song was called 'Too Much'

Legend when I was at college - He always sang "Born in the USA" over and over - bought him the odd maccy burger when they were 39p and was always a nice guy - shame if he gone to the rock school in the clouds.

I remember him from the Talented Mr Ripley, Magnolia and the Big Lebowski.
I really don't recall him singing Bros and/or Bruce Springstein outside Rochdale bus station.

The lad in question is called Ian Cullen, I remember him from Matthew Moss middle school in the 80's. He used to live on Clovelly St. in Castleton, and if I am not mistaken, lives Falinge way now.

Yes he was/is called Ian - at the time I used to chat with him he had a Walkman and the best air guitar known to man - that was it - Born In the USA was never so tuneless or brilliant :)

I hope it turns out that he is alive and well!
