As you probably know next weekend Tommy Tiernan is attempting to set a Guinness World Record for the longest solo stand up show ever from 3pm on Good Friday until Dawn on Easter Sunday all in aid of the GYDS resource centre “Number 4” in Galway City . As you also may know the charity have recently been forced into a turnaround by the board of directors to refuse the money they were promised based on the diocesan feeling “uncomfortable” about the event beginning on Good Friday.Tommy and everyone involved is more determined then ever to raise these funds and make sure they go to the marginalised young people. This is no ordinary Tommy Tiernan show. He needs to stay awake and keep managing to talk for 37 hours. He may not even be funny at times, he may even just be whispering, he may be talking rubbish. Hopefully he won’t loose his voice. But as long as he keeps going and makes it to dawn the world record will be set. Tommy needs you keep him going, feed him ideas for material, bring something with you that he can talk about.
We need all you Tommy fans to get behind him with your support. There are shows in the middle of the night, first thing in the morning, middle of the afternoon and we want some of you lunatic folks on board. Make it an Easter event with pals, your Lenten offering, or your way of helping the homeless this Easter.
We are setting aside a number of tickets for groups of 10 or more at the concession rate of €15 per ticket. Whatever your group is friends, family, students, nurses, doctors, hairdressers, shift workers, taxi drivers, teachers, messers.
Be part of this Guinness World Record attempt by an Irishman and in the process help raise these much needed funds for the homeless.
