Service For Late ROSE TATTOO Guitarist To Be Held Next Week

December 23, 2009

According to the Undercover, a service for the late ROSE TATTOO guitarist Mick Cocks will be held at the St Augustine Catholic Church in Eaton St, Balmain, Sydney, Australia on December 30 at 1:00 p.m.

Friends and family will gather to honor Cocks, who passed away yesterday (Tuesday, December 22) from a short battle with liver cancer.

Mick was diagnosed with the disease a year ago and told fans in April.

Some of Australia's best-loved rockers — including ROSE TATTOO, JIMMY BARNES, YOU AM I, IAN MOSS and THE SCREAMING JETS — joined forces in July to put on a benefit gig for Cocks.

ROSE TATTOO guitarist Pete Wells passed away in March 2006 after a long battle with prostate cancer.
