Anyone know much about a guy called David O'Doherty? Probably gonna see him next month so will he be worth it. Any good?
Went to see PJ Gallagher in Sligo last night, obviously I knew he was good before hand with Naked Camera and that but the man really is pure funny. Anyone else here see his stand up act? What ye think?
i know this is plural, but apres match. a howl!
Richard Prior.
Going to see Reginald D Hunter in Kilkenny this year, as he was a brilliant surprise last time out, and he's on with Dara O'Briain who is just excellent live anyway.
My favourite stand-up comic won't be at Cat Laughs this year though, Sean Lock. Pure genius!
Dylan Moran anyone??
Monster cracked me up
The new one isn't as good though........

Bernard Manning and Roy Chubby Brown?? Racists the pair of them
Poor old tommy teirnan has gone pretty poor recenctly allright . Jimmy carr is ok in short bursts but an hour of just jokes gets boring very quickly .
both Jason and ed Byrne are just idiots far from funny
ricky gervais is good live , Dylan moran is class , but paul Merton is probibly the funniest bloke around at the moment has been for a long time .
Saw him upstairs in the International about five years ago and he was doing pretty much the same stuff he was doing on telly recently.Quote:

Bill Hicks, then Dylan Moran, then Jerry Seinfeld
Anyone catch The Modest Adventures of David O'Doherty on RTE last night? Dublin to Galway (well two-thirds of the way...) on a bike - funny stuff :DQuote:

We were having this discussion on the Harps forum.
My favourite Irish comedian is Tommy Tiernan and overall Bill Bailey would be my choice. Others mentions were Dylan Moran, Rich Hall, Jason Byrne and Jimmy Cricket.
Just wondering what the foot.ie communities opinions were.
I've a few but at the moment have to say I like Andrew Maxwell's brand of dry Dublin humour
