Billy Connolly said Tommy Tiernan is one of his top 3 stand up comedians of all time. Thats good enough for me because Billy is my all time No.1.

I’m gonna be honest here. I love Tommy. I think he’s the best comedian Ireland has ever been lucky enough to have. He should have done the Declan Moffat rape joke. But I don’t think Tommy was brave enough to do it. I guess he was a bit scared of the American reaction. The likes of Bill Hicks would’ve went for the jugular.
