From Tommy's first DVD, 'Live'.

"You don't know if she's singing in Egyptian or being interfered with!" 😂😂 Absolutely classic.

“The pub will lift off the ground” I love this guy!! 🤣

I'm a beginning Bodrhan player and I'm slowly learning how true this IS.

[@geraldinehigginsburke7170]

he's one of Ireland's funniest.. love him.

[@lejla7075]

What about Dylan Moran ?

[@lani2023]

Irish audiences are so calm and chilled out.

[@RonanBrowneMusic]

[@notoriouseagle1074]

Tommy's take on an Irish session's is like a mix of folk and metal music.

[@cindyrobinson9014]

...the huge lump of semi-concussed children on the wall. Brillant Tommy, brillant♥️

[@maureenwagg5305]

I fekkin' understand this, godammit Tommy! Faster! Another drink! Lord help us he's speaking our language. lololol

[@BoopShooBee]

An old Colonel told me that at Ceilis in Clare they could dance their way to nirvana and stay there for a couple of days. No alcohol was involved. The drink ruins everything.

[@seannamadra5675]

Glenn Howden no drink in Clare? Cmon!lol! Its a alckys vallhalle ffs!

What a fucking legend.

Great!!!!!!!! From Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. If you are worth your weight in gold, you are part Irish! Thank-you. Heather JUNE GREENING-JOHNSON.

[@archiederham2103]

if ye weren't born in eire and haven't lived there, you're not irish, not even a little bit.

[@666Tracey]

Alot of Irish people settled in Newfoundland there's myth that Ireland and Newfoundland was connected lol. Ps im Irish lol

[@alexkilgour1328]

​@@archiederham2103if you've never been to Newfoundland, then you can't speak on the topic.

[@archiederham2103]

@@alexkilgour1328 having Irish heritage doesn’t make someone Irish, it makes their older family / ancestors Irish. Newfoundland isn’t even in the same fucking continent as Ireland.

[@alexkilgour1328]

@@archiederham2103 well, my Irish Passport makes me Irish, by law and birth. My father was born in Ireland, all my extended family are still there, and I go and visit as often as I'm able (and have since I was a young child). Culturally, Newfoundland is the most Irish place outside of Ireland, in the world. Growing up in Newfoundland, where the population is roughly 45% ethnically Irish, the culture and traditions are much the same. Prior to joining Canada, in 1949, there were parts of the island where the street signs were in Irish and Irish was still spoken. In fact, there were still some people, along the Irish Loop, whose first language was Irish, not English, as recently as the 80's and 90's.

The "English (auto-generated)" subtitles are almost as funny as the video itself 😂

[@seanmcginnis7865]

how do you write this stuff.... I love it but it's so out there

[@heavymentaler3646]

Sean McGinnis You don't write it; you experience it and interpret it ;) It's how he interpretes it that makes it so golden haha.

[@imogeneboland6893]

I adore his older stuff and I even went to see him live but then he went a little....bleurgh

[@camillamansfield6130]

Very funny

[@TheNikOnder]

Irish folks, what does he say at 5:45? It's the only thing I can't understand and I hear Irish say this all the time

C'mere and I'll ride you now? Ride = shag/fuck Can also be used in reference to a hottie; he/she is a ride.

Ah I’d say he’s gutted to hear that Sheamus. His sold out stand up shows, popular acting role in Derry Girls, and self titled RTE show says otherwise
