The End of An Era

• 7th Jul 2004

Yes, it's true – the Xylophone Man (aka Frank Robinson) has died. Anyone who lives in Nottingham will be familiar with his work around the streets of the city – come rain or shine he would be there hammering away at his xylophone and grinning. Whether you thought he was a misunderstood musical talent or simply a nutter who liked to hit his instrument at random he was a legendary character around the city. Today a city mourns.
