    Jesus would he ever fcuk off like. Anyone else noticed his "act" around town - just shouting gibberish, not sure what language it even is, snippets of English and unintelligible sounds.

    He wrecks my head

    Vladimir, I agree that he is coming out with some unintelligible gibberish but I find him fascinating. Trying to work out what lyrics he is singing is great fun. He is the only performer in any town that I contribute to. He will become an institution.

    He reminds of a cross between Tommy Tiernan and Christy Dignam having a seizure.

    I pity the staff in the shops he "sings" outside

    There are two regular buskers on that street I can think of -- just off the top of my head -- that are more annoying than the guy you're talking about.

    I'm in two minds on this guy.
    Yes, he's annoying as hell, that ****ing tambourine and the nonsense lyrics, but I too find it fascinating trying to figure out what the **** he's on about. :D

    Is it the same guy who thinks is Luciano Pavorotti? It's pure and utter cacophony. On Saturdays he's usually on the corner of Catherine Street and Thomas Street. I'm surprised the workers in the shops haven't run him out of the place.

    It's important to support local artists.

    Steps are playing in Thomond Park in July, taking the piss is a viable career path.

    This the lad with the tambourine and who believes that in order to sing an Irish folk song properly you need to shout out part of the lyrics?

    If it is my wife said if she was working in one of the nearby shops she would pay him just to f**k off in order to maintain her sanity. :pac:

    He only sings very well known Irish songs, I enjoy listening to him but I'm sure it would grate after a while

    Ah, now I know who you mean. I was thinking of the guy with the tracksuit tucked into white socks who switches between singing and telling us that we should find God.

    Came here to ask this too.
    I’ve found him on William Street and in Newcastle West on Bishop Street on Saturdays too.
