Saw Al at Plymouth Arena about 12 years ago and he was superb! The way he works off the audience is a real comedy skill!

[@reuben8140]

It’s such a niche talent in standup, you’ve got to be so on the ball to incorporate it so much into your act

[@warrenreidy7925]

100% agreed. Saw him first in Dublin about 15 years ago and he was incredible. I’ve seen them all but AM is the most talented I’ve witnessed. Front row for his gig in Dublin this coming Nov. Can’t wait!

[@garulusglandarius6126]

Seen Al live 4 times, 4 of the best evenings of my life, my entire body ached from laughter. Love this guy 👍🤣😂🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

@@stevelufc64 Here are 23 of Joe Biden’s greatest accomplishments as president of the United States. 1.

Helped get more than 500 million life-saving COVID-19 vaccinations in the arms of Americans through the American Rescue Plan. 3. Stopped a 30-year streak of federal inaction on gun violence by signing the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act that created enhanced background checks, closed the “boyfriend” loophole and provided funds for youth mental health. 4.
