He’s in the Comedy Cavern in Cork city on Valentine’s Night, so if you’re in that neck of the woods head along.
It was the second gig of the year for The Blasket Comedy Club with Eleanor Tiernan completing the trilogy of stand-up shows on Thursday, February 21. In fact it’s been announced Shane will be opening for Eleanor that night so get your tickets! Scroll down for photos…
