I find the name "Eck Wilson" in the novel "Trainspotting" (p 214).
Who is Eck Wilson?
What is his importance?
I tried Wikipedia, but to no avail
I guess he is a musician?

I think your right, I pulled something up inm a yahoo ssearch of Eck Wilson With The Strathpeffer Band. so I guess so, he must not be that important since he doen't have that much on him on the web, any one who's anyone has atleast a article on them online.

I'm not sure either. He's talking about a knife negating someone's physical strength, I believe. Eck Wilson "found oot tae his cost in the second year." Perhaps he was a classmate who was stabbed by someone after a confrontation. I don't seem to remember him being mentioned otherwise.
