Speaking of The Commitments, local lad Paul Duffy toured with them for about 6 years. He can play most Irish instruments but is also well known for playing the sax whilst walking a tightrope.

His pub here hit hard times so his mate Brian Johnson started hanging out there and it soon got busy again for a while, but then business dropped off again so Brian and some of his mates did a gig in the car park at $5 a ticket :-)
