Cutting Loose with Tommy Tiernan
It's great to see Irish comedian (and in my opinion Ireland's funniest comedian) Tommy Tiernan doing so well in the States. His debut in Los Angeles has been heralded as a runaway success.
The Navan man's stint there has been described as a sell out success with his politically incorrect routines receiving standing ovations.
Variety magazine described his observations as offbeat and thoughtful while the LA Times dubbed Tiernan a Gaelic Eddie Izzard without the weird drag or literary.
That's great to hear. Personally I think he's excellent and I found this hilarious 15 minute clip of his show "Loose" at last year's Montreal Comedy Festival which had me laughing out loud. Check it out below...
