Writing on his website, Christy said: "There will be a gig in Whelan's of Dublin on October 19. I want to play in memory of Derek Nally who passed recently. I wish to acknowledge his devotion to and passion for Live Music. He was a gentle man and he shared his love of music with thousands of us over the years. Get in quick! All proceeds will go to Derek's young family."
