More feckin country music, or country and Irish. It's like a bad smell these days

Wouldn't you think they'd have a gig on a Saturday night.

Where is the nearest hotel to Donnybrook with a function suite?

This fake everyone is best friends in country music mullarky is so false.

They would all stab each other in the back for an extra gig.

Literally, in some cases.

Fun Miriam Fact Number 1:

A dog came on and was walking nefariously around the stage, yet this dog was the only guest in the last five years that Miriam did not say "Stay There" to.

"Is it more difficult for women in country". You know at this stage I'm waiting for some woman to say "Is it more difficult for a woman to give birth".

An odd question.

Aren't there billions of C&W women stars?

I'd say there's no chance of any of our crop showing up on an episode of Nashville

Philomena really fancies herself

#massive ego

Apparently she is not shy in asking people "don't you know who I am?" if she isn't given red carpet VIP treatment.

Which is awkward when the answer is usually "No - who are you?"

When you open your mouth you are on

wise words

Miriam refusing to ask the hard and obvious question. Who d fu@k is paying to watch you, Philomena?

Jaysus they are p1ssing all over that "best fans award" with their juvenile behaviour tonight arent they.

Well, at least they're not throwing flares, holding up offensive banners and punching each other like the Croatian fans were in the match against the Czech Republic...

Lady Chatterton

Does Philomena know the words to any other song?

Cliona actually looks a bit like Hayden Patteniere (spelling?)

Harry Angstrom

Philomena's lack of jiving reminds me of Footloose.

Isn't it terrible that 50 years later we have a new incarnation of people making and listening to this shïte!

Shocked that anyone likes this shìte tbh and even if there was sex appeal (which including fake looking cliona there isn't) its not enough to get me interested

Apologise to Hayden at once.

Christ that's brutal. Yer wan Ciona is brutal to listen to. She sings in a really fake voice

Ol' Donie

This is bollocks.

Not super eloquent, but true nonetheless.

She reminds me of Lurleen, the country singer Homer discovered

She'd be given a jiving ban, so to speak.

I've had that experience and I replied....

Are you Susan McCann lol

As for Miriam's 'preference' for Irish guests translate it as 'our production are not stretching the budget this year and I don't want to be overawed so our guests are roped in from the canteen'

Welsh Megaman

Guy with the horses head should crawl onto the stage on all fours, for Cliona to mount and head off into the sunset.

I was just thinking Harvey, it would be nearly worth getting RTE security to deal with them just for the headline.

"WORLD'S GREATEST FANS THROWN OUT OF RTE STUDIOS"

walshb

So bad you'd almost miss D'Arcy.......no no. Just kidding.

squonk

Wish the Irish fans rioted being made listen to that ****e!

tampopo

Evening all. Sorry I'm late.
At least they're singing live.(they ARE singing live, right?)

And with that, it's over.

He's quite a man,
I tried to kiss him,
But Homer ran.
Sure wish I could say
That I was his,
I hope that Marge knows
Just how lucky she is."

"I do!"

Didnt Worzel Gummidge marry one of these?

With a statement like that, I really dont think you're being fair to Ray D'Arcy.

Ray's show is usually worse. Trust me.

There's a movie called Mambo Kings just starting on TG4.

Yous should all get on it.
