He likes to rant and rave without the use of a microphone - any why would he need one? He's a big enough noise without amplification.......O'Shea 's a force of nature, and likely to prove an unstoppable one" www.chortle.co.uk

    Where any of ye at it?

    Great night - didn't think much of the support act but Bernard himself was on-fire. Was crying from laughter at one stage.
    Can't wait for his next gig!
