It's my first live PodaRooney! It was a cold dark winter evening all of three weeks ago in a cosy little room upstairs in The Stags Head that PodaRooney history was made. I was as sick as a dog from one of those inevitable flus that you have to get every Irish winter when your body relents to the constant drizzly dampness and says, "I'm fed up fighting. Go on, just do whatever you have to do and get it over with". I dragged myself from my sick bed and met up with Thomas Walsh (Duckworth Lewis Method, Pugwash) and actor John Connors (Love Hate, Cardboard Gangsters) to rip into a few local heroes and international icons in front of a small but appreciative audience. We also sang a couple of songs. A typical night out in a Dublin pub really.
