Gingerfightback can reveal that legendary songsmith, drinker and toothless marvel Shane McGowan has joined the world famous Oirish Dance Show.
The show now known as Liverdance, will be an homage to the fabled Irishman’s drinking exploits and ability to muster even a syllable after three days on the creme de menthe.
His friend Paddy Magillicuddy-Reeks told Gfb, “Begorrah, shillelagh, bacon and cabbage, Guinness, famine, English Bastards! Top o’ the morn to ye all, Daniel O’Donnell, leprechauns up me crack! – it’ll be grand so it will. Shaney’s in top form – his fleckel is a sight for sore eyes and he recently did the splits after a three year bender in Tip. Didn’t spill a drop neither. Legend.”
Queen Liz of England is a great fan of McGowan’s songs about the Irish diaspora and has donned traditional Oirish Garb to make sure she can get a ticket for the show.
Ginny Bunty In-Bred, keeper of the Queen’s knuckles told Gfb, “Liz is highly excited about the news. She has a real empathy for the Micks and promises to be ruling you all again in a few years time. Whoops I shouldn’t have said that last bit. Invasion plans were meant to be secret. Can we not mention that. There’s a knighthood in it for you, Pleb looking chap if you keep schtum.”
Well here’s a couple of examples of Shanes’s handiwork.
I should have finished my coffee before I read this one. Excuse me while I go clean up the mess I made from laughing. 😉
Cheers Michelle!
He’s supposed to be a special guest in a pub tonight, my friends are playing and he is supposed to be doing Fairtytale of New York with them.
Let me know what happens Joe – he is a genius.
I’m not going, I can’t cope with another hangover at work, had enough in the last week, I’m too old for this lark. How does Shane do it?!
Now there is a unique voice … a voice fitting for a duet with Oily. But I must admit, when I first saw your mention of Liverdance, I thought of Liberdance – the dance tribute to Liberace.
Now there is a thought to conjure with Frank!
I can only imagine a Ginger Liberace special. Oh, my word.
Jim, I am so glad I did not have wine in my mouth when I read this…………still laughing.
Good
Tickets for the show are sold according to date, as know one (as I can attest form experience) has any idea what time Shane will actually go onstage.
It will be a great show though.
Me too!

Many years ago, I was arrested by a police officer who looked like Val Doonican. I’ve hated the bastard ever since.
I was force fed a diet of Val during my formative years. That’s Me Katy Little Lady – still haunts me.
