I saw Rory play one time only in 1987 at the Cork Opera House. I left Ireland in 1994 for the States. Trying to learn the guitar and thought of Rory. SHocked to find he died in 1997 and is buried in the town where I grew up. Far better that teh airport be named after Rory than some politician or other.

I am from GREECE and in 2007 traveled to Ireland, the festival of Balysanon, to honor this great man and Artists. You are always in our hearts. I hope the airport to take your name because uniting people from as far away places ..

Rory made you you feel like you were on stage with him, taking a musical journey. No better place than an airport to start a journey.

Come on guys. Rory was born at the Rock Hospital, spent his life taking his "Rock" to all and sundry. the very fact that "Cork" is an anagram of "Rock" speaks volumes to me. Of course it should be named after Ireland's favourite son. Rory Gallagher Airport sounds perfect.

Let's not forget that apart from all his worldwide tours, Rory NEVER forgot Belfast or his fans there. This was after being told that his safety could by no means be assured. Other (well known) entertainers stayed away in droves, but Rory was there every year. This man remained so very loyal to Ireland, what better way for his Homeland to reciprocate?

I cannot think of a better way to expose the music of this rock and roll titan to the world than to name an international airport in his honor.

I'm from Hungary. Rory is my favorit musician from the early 70s. I know your town only as his birthplace. But i'd like to see this town. What a great feeling will arrive at the Rory Gallagher Airport.
