Tom McManamon (30 May 1961 - 15 December 2006) R.I.P. A very personal thank you to the genius that was Tom McManamon, who sadly passed away on 15 December 2006. As I'm sure all visitors to this website will know, Tom was the banjo player with the Popes, who were Shane's backing band throughout his solo years. A superb musician and a lovely man. "May the angels bright watch you tonight and keep you while you sleep.."
