    Brendan o'carroll, or Carroll, I don't know his surname. absolute ****, ordered food, was rude to me when it took more than thirty seconds to prep it, left the table feckin filthy, couldn't even leave his leftovers on the tray, they had to be smushed all over the table for me to clean up.

    Colin farrell, absolute gent, very down to earth.

    The band Black Veil Brides, sound guys, quiet, big tippers.

    I served Abraham Lincoln once, he got his pint, looked for extra nibbles, then in walks Ghandi, gagging for a Smithwicks. Both were sound, Abe was a bit stingy, but Ghandi left me a big tip. Two of them were gas, spent the whole time bitching about Mother teresa.

    Used to work in an Irish bar in Amsterdam. Myself and the bar manager were both metal fans so we used to head for a couple of pints in the metal bar around the corner after work most nights. I finish early one night so head around to the bar, sat at the bar having a quiet pint and got talking to a bunch of oretty cool American guys who got pretty annoyingly loud as they got more wasted so I bailed early and texted the boss to warn him there were a bunch of loud Americans in the bar. Turns out it was Slipknot. I'd been having a few pints with one of my favourite bands and didn't even bloody know it. You get a fair few big bands around in the summer during festival season though, there's only one metal bar in Amsterdam and famous people on tour like Irish pubs cos everyone working in them speaks English. Fun times.

    Ryan Tubirty in a chipper he was nice

    That's odd. Tubrity doesn't look like he's ever been in a chipper in his life. The man could do with a sandwich or two.

    Wow, the Corminator, aren't you lucky :P
    Haha! He was actually fairly sound! I was just laughing the whole time because of that Tallafonia Swipe thing on youtube. He was handing out "vodka" and "red bull" for free to us all anyway so he was grand.
    were you calling in the jury when you saw him?

    Michael Flatley.

    A **** load more too but I'd say he'd be one the most famous of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated


    So let me see:
    Triple H and Rakishi, the WWE wrestlers, nice lads.
    Colin Farrell, a lot sounder than I expected.
    Brendan O'Carroll, arsehole, apparently always has been.
    Sinead O'connor, odd, but thought she was cool.
    Shane MaGowan. You think he can drink? Wait til he's room service breakfast, there's more booze that you can imagine. Multiple types of beer, a selection of spirits, a few mixers, and when you're collecting the tray, the food is still there.
    Christina Aguilera, absolute cûntbag. Wouldn't speak directly to me.
    Dana Rosemary Scallon. I hate that woman.
    The Governator. Sound as ****, but nowhere near as big as I thought!

    There's more.

    Dobbo cut in front of me in a lunch queue in the RTE canteen and not an excuse me or a word of an apology out of him the big tall fuddermucker.

    Never served them, but I knocked Sarah Jessica Parkers bags off her trolley at an airport due to not looking where I was going. I was full of apologies and she was nice about it but Ferris gave me dagger eyes like I took his kidney or somethng.

    Was at a function in a restaurant on Saturday last and Kian Egan was there. I had a few bevvies on me and started singing. To my delight he swiveled around in his chair...... and left.

    Daniel Day Lewis, Steven Spielberg and Bruce Springsteen all refused to take a photo with me or even say hello at the Four Seasons bar after a Bruce gig in 2012.
