    "Neurotic, bad for me; psychotic, bad for you". Bloody brilliant.

    Tommy has the most authentic Irish voice on the world stage I think, his witticisms and the way he articulates his experiences around the place in Ireland always make me laugh hard as it’s so true when you think about it. Brings me way back to my rural Irish roots. Thanks Tommy.

    I'm sorry but I think I just found a cure for depression. Hanging out in a field playing with sheep then having a sandwich sounds lovely.

    Sigmund Freud said that Irish people are impervious to psychoanalysis is it is useless to even try. I am Irish and where I am from we welcome anyone that is a bit eccentric or mad as it breaks the boredom of normal life. I could tell you a million stories of people in my area. Here is one for example A fella who drinks in out pub got a heart attack one day at home. He tried to ring a few a few people but no one answered so he drove himself to the hospital but he went down the coast road as he had no tax and insurance on the car and he wanted to avoid the cops 😂😂😂 Off he drove clutching his chest. Lol

  • Best thing about this guy. He could be a comedian booked for the gig. Could also be some crazy irishman who got onto the stage somehow and started ranting. If you weren't familiar with his work there'd be no way to be sure.

    'I'm not good by meself or with people' -pretty much sums up being an Irishman.

    I saw him a few years ago in Belfast on the night the new Pope was elected. He was hilarious. I'll never forget his description of the introduction of the new Pope. "One old bewildered looking gentleman introducing another old bewildered looking gentleman " i still smile when I think of it.

    "So I let a few roars out of me." Completely logical reaction to the circumstances.
  • I like how he can always have you vividly imagining he’s story’s.

    "You think you have it bad, wait'll you see this fella!! Roll the tape!!" 😆😆😆
