In tribute: Seán Rocks showed us with warmth and wit that the Irish arts matter A contributor to RTÉ Arena, journalist Aoife Barry writes about the legacy Seán Rocks leaves behind him – for artists, journalists and audiences.

Terrible news about the untimely death of Seán Rocks - I can hardly believe it... grateful to get to pay tribute to him for @thejournal.ie: www.thejournal.ie/tribute-to-s...

Thing I always liked about Arena, and it was down to Seán Rocks as much as anything, was the way it moved without any sense of slumming it, from supposedly 'high' culture to popular stuff. No change in tone, or criticality. With 'Front Row', on R4, there's a 'special voice' for pop music stuff.

Absolutely agree, Stan. As well as that, he always listened to the albums, or read the books, or watched the films that were being discussed. Even if he didn't offer his opinion on air he would share it with us after the show. It makes a huge impact, that. He never became jaded by the work.

And to add also: Seán was a hilarious man for whom the term "twinkle in his eye" is so apt! He was deeply serious about supporting the arts, but that never stopped him from making a wry comment during the news break that would have me and the other guests in stitches.

Seán was always so warm and kind to me whenever I was lucky enough to be on arena. Albums being the last item on fridays, he spoke often about his weekend plans ahead -- always with his family. I will really miss him. My thoughts are with his family, his RTÉ collegues and all of his listeners.

Truly The Wire walked so that Succession could run

I love this journey for you! It's such a good show it's insane

In this one @andreacleary.bsky.social cruelly gets me to guess as to what certain things mean and what they might mean for book three. Looking forward to getting it all completely wrong!

Songalong

"I didn't see you at Gastonbury".

Okay, well I didn't see you at the Sunday night Hare Krisha songalong that is currently happening in the apartment opposite mine?

God she's amazing. Just a gal, a glass of white wine, a backing track and the auto tune maxed out.

Celebrating Pride as God intended (watching Charli XCX on my iPad and drinking a glass of rosé)

In tears watching CMAT's Glastonbury set. Up Dublin. Up Meath. Up women. Up gingers.

The children in the creche downstairs are having their graduation outside in their play area and they have their little caps on 🎓😭

Oh he's so sweet!

And to be clear, I am speaking to and of the left.

Setting our disinformation recognition dials to maximum is probably the most productive thing anyone can do right now

I'm afraid I'm on a balcony and only grow in containers so I don't get slugs (thankfully) so I have no idea! You could try dedicating a little area to plants they like to munch and transfering them?

It's too hot for anything more strenuous than watering the plants
