Billy Connolly - Dublin - World Tour of England, Ireland and Wales

[@illuminatedsocialreject802]

Billy Connolly, the perfect blend of rock'n'roll, music, poetry, comedy and yet so human, so down to earth. So in touch with who he is and where he came from. Billy you will always be the ultimate working class hero to me, I laugh and cry in almost equal measure to your material, and will always aspire to your enthusiasm for life and all which it contains. You give hope to so many, probably unknowingly because you remain so humble, almost vulnerable and yet so vibrant and hungry for a life most of us will never experience. One in a million. Love you Big Yin x

Not a better word said

[@JasonLeePatrick]

That session… and not a phone in sight… love ya Billy

[@ukdnbmarsh]

wow just imagine that, the great billy connolly visits your pub and has a jam, thats proper living right there, what a treat it must have been

[@chrismckee5569]

How wonderful it would be to find yourself in that pub on that night. Love Billy's performance of The Ballad of John Hardy and his banjo playing. Perfection!

[@maggiemiller5309]

Priceless ❤❤

[@neoxenia7014]

I think Billy might just be the best human.

[@neilpaine9063]

He'd get my vote👍🏻👍🏻

[@rodjameson1837]

I think you may just be right!!

[@brettlester5670]

All three of you are right. I explained to my daughter who he was after we'd watched 'A Series of Unfortunate Events', she said he seems like the best Uncle ever; she was only 6 at the time. We then watched lots of videos of his stand up and telly shows. He is loved in our house, as he is in millions of homes around the world. Long live Billy.

[@joeward4761]

Nope my mother is 🤘✌️🤘

[@paddyfromireland9277]

Billy is the best, has his own style of stand up, developed over years. No one can copy, unique. A tough early life made him what he is. All the best Billy.

[@peterfalahee]

I met billy once years ago in limerick and he was so nice … we didn’t annoy him and he thanked us for it .. not everyone noticed him and we didn’t make it obvious… lovely man

[@IamMiXeM]

The great Billy Connolly. Pure talented. I never missed a episode of this when is was aired on Tv.

[@Godschild316]

Spot on, well said🌹

[@maureenrees636]

A very highly talented man.

[@ajj9694]

John Hardy song is about a real man in McDowell County, WV. I love Billy’s appreciation of Appalachian music.

[@Sean-Ireland]

Ahhhhhhh good old Billy a product of everything thats wonderful about these isles.

[@upkpoxer]

Thanks for sharing! Pure joy in the session, lovely to see. Stay safe and rock on!

[@JacobDaniels63]

Imagine just strolling in to a folk bar in Ireland and dazzling the local crowd with a perfect John Hardy ….genius Connolly

[@christinehobson4825]

Essence of Irish culture and history

[@christinehobson4825]

It's where I'd like to be right now and in good company

[@alegnalowe3679]

Irish music and bagpipes bring me so much joy that i sometimes cry laughing!

[@willcashmore688]

Absolutely brilliant!

[@iampumaa]

I L❤VE the history lessons in these videos. I think you are awesome. Please make more, travel/history videos ❤❤

[@59mar88]

This is ages old and he is twenty years older now and can hardly walk

[@iampumaa]

[@scottishwildcat]

This was filmed not long after I moved to Dublin... brings back memories seeing “Canary Dwarf” being built again!

[@Godschild316]

I hate it when my wee tingles 😂

[@marionbowler5440]

Absolutely amazing 🇨🇦🍁🤗🐘

[@briansergeant]

This was during the Celtic Tiger years mind. Also The Point is no more, it’s now the 3Arena.

[@laetitialogan2002]

One of our own..

[@59mar88]

😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@jakhaughton1800]

Thursday nights at the Abbey Tavern, Houth. Great night

[@johnmcgahern3946]

Howth

[@GregSmithPhD]

Love the trike ... and Billy.

[@huailang2252]

I kinda wish he'd shown the plaque in Joseph Plunkett's cell, where Grace Gifford married him minutes before he was executed.

[@budway1942]

He used to tour back in the sixties with the guy who wrote Stuckin the Middle with you...who went on to form Steelers Wheels.. Mick Huxtable...fyi

[@pauldrennan1482]

That was Gerry Rafferty and the band that he was in with Billy was called the humblebums

[@scottandrewbrass]

Who the fux Mick Huxtable?!

[@DannyCafferkey]

I second that, who the feck is Mick Huxtable 😂

[@irbennett]

It was Gerry Rafferty and the song was Stuck In The Middle With You. Mick Huxtable is a horse trainer. I can see how mixed the two up, they are so similar. Not.

[@irbennett]

@@DannyCafferkey He's a horse trainer. Makes me laugh just thinking about it.

[@hillbillyscotsman]

❤

[@davidmartin1093]

Billy must have played John Hardy twice, once finger picking and then clawhammer style. A good raucous performance by all though...👍

[@thENDweDIE]

"The Irish have a wonderful disrespect for everything..." HaHa...Billy kills me..!!

[@thomascraig1517]

fuckin brilliant 😊

[@matthewpowell6516]

You know how to frighten a guy 😂

[@traceygates4767]

I like Billy Connolly but he is quite funny and length he is the best actor sandals up man Tracey Gates flat 32 Parc Mean Hir Letterston nr Haverfordwest Pembrokeshire Wales UK 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿😎😎👍

[@w8m4n]

No disrespect, but it might not be a good idea to post your address publicly on a KZbin video, if that's what the latter of you comment was.

[@irishelk3]

Haha

[@massabmiharbi7931]

The Irish history has many similarities with the Palestinians, did you know that, Billy?

[@kevinpoore5626]

Good thing to make don't make a living thing cuz you would have failed

[@irbennett]

Piece of advice, don't post a comment when you're stoned.

[@kevinfacts5200]

Oooops. All that building pre 2008 hehe. Crash.

[@massabmiharbi7931]

Billy I love your jokes but Stick to comedy you would never made it as a singer ... 😂

[@Sierra-bw4gm]

Well he would never have came too comedy, without being a folk singer first. He also has a UK No1 single, so it really depends on what you mean, by not making it as a singer.

[@christinecatt5391]

I'm trying to be nice...but with a name like Massab...well really you should refrain from commenting on things you apparently know nothing about. Early in Billy's career as a folk singer he recorded a song called Tennessee love song...l think that was the title..? Lovely song he wrote himself ... Listen to it...it's brilliant. !!

[@grahamstretch6863]

Duh! He made it as a singer already! My Billy experience started in 74 / 75 with some of his comedy songs, “if it wasnea for yer wellies” D.I.V.O.R.C.E. etc then his comedy followed.

[@irbennett]

@@christinecatt5391 Billy recorded The Old Fashioned Tennessee Waltz.

[@irbennett]

@@grahamstretch6863 D.I.V.O.R.C.E was written by somebody else, and recorded by Tammy Wynette. Billy just changed the lyrics.

[@keepgoing1973]

Sounds almost Cajun like in the the movie Southern Comfort.
