    Would it ruin the show if there was no drink?

    Of course not, but if you're looking forward to having a night out and seeing a show then it's not unreasonable to want to have a drink or two on that night out.

    Actually I take it back.

    I thought I remembered Frankie Boyle saying that the Theatre licence would allow them to serve booze but turns out it doesn't.

    Please note, as per Irish licensing regulations, we are not allowed to serve alcohol at Frankie Boyle's show on 25th March as it takes place on Good Friday. Soft drinks and snacks will be available to purchase in our bars.

    At least the gig won't be plagued with people getting up to go to the jacks every two minutes!

    How did it effect the gig if at all?

    One thing that bugs me about Irish comedy audiences is that some people get tanked up for a gig and then spend the evening chatting to friends and too drunk to listen to the show.

    "I'm 43 years old and I have body likle a dropped lasagne" :D

    Ripped into somebody at the front with a elaborate hair style and told them that it was like putting 26" chrome rims on a wheelie bin :D

    I enjoyed it anyway!

    I think it's Craig Campbell? I watched ten mins of his new netflix show. Awful had to turn it off. Not one bit funny.
