John Colleary

comes along and with his usual style of seeming to come up with things on the spot and each a crazier idea than the last. One by one people were coming up to me asking was this the guy that played, (Ros)Common people and I said yes! Emily had seen him on the radio! Wow! that was weird! He had been invited onto Spin 103.8 by Jack Kinkaid and the song had gone down a storm then, every time John does a gig he storms it and the guitar is never far away. Everyone was hoping that he might do it. Just when it looked like he was finished his set he picked up the guitar and immediately the shout went out from the crowd for Roscommon people. Is there ever a time when John Colleary doesn't satisfy a crowd
