Frankie Goes to Hollywood[edit]

I haven't been able to find a primary source for the claim that he has played with FGTH. It is there from the original version of the page and seems to come from the Irish Central article from 2009 linked in the references. Any other references to it that I have found are likely to have come from this Wikipedia page or the original source article. It may have been an in joke that somehow got published as fact. Perhaps @Acabashi could clarify? Ccferrie (talk) 12:16, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've now removed the reference following confirmation from the man himself that it was not true. See https://www.limerickpost.ie/2020/02/19/rock-solid-session-from-three-legends-of-traditional-irish-music/ Ccferrie (talk) 14:31, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
