The Latchikos write:

At a festival on Achill Island in Co Mayo, a storyteller is in full flight and, while channelling a vulgar barman character, drops an F-bomb and some swearing.

He then gets interrupted by young nine-year-old girl and told “watch your language”.

The story then adjusts and takes on a wild energy culminating in a raucus dance party.

Wa-hey.

The video was taken when Aindrias de Staic and The Latchikos at the Achill Pure Magic Wind Surf Festival last autumn.

Aindiras is on tour in Co Cork this week with his spoken word/storytelling  show The Man from Moogaga which won Best Radio Comedy at the Celtic Media Awards.

Tonight, he’ll be in Bartlemy Parish Hall at 8pm; tomorrow night he’ll be at Ballynoe Community Centre at 8pm; on Saturday, he’ll be at The Mall Arts Centre in Youghal at 8pm; and on Sunday he’ll be at The Palace Theatre in Fermoy at 8pm.

Next Friday, February 21, he’ll perform at the Linnenhall Arts Centre in Castlebar, Co Mayo. Tickets for all events at the door.

Meanwhile, Aindiras and The Latchikos will play Whelan’s in Dublin on February 27.

Thanks Aindrias

On Sunday, 4th December internationally acclaimed Actor and Showman Aindrias de Staic and his band The Latchikos will perform “The Man from Moogaga” Live at Whelans on Wexford St at 8pm.

Fresh off the back of the Vodafone Comedian of the Year final The Man from Moogaga is a musical- comedy-story-telling hybrid telling the tale of growing up in a remote town in Ireland in the 1980’s, and playing with friends on the local GAA team.

Full of twists and turns with a cast of strong peculiar characters, all infused with de Staic’s impish sense of humour and musical skills, this show will certainly resonate with anybody who grew up in the West.

Straight from Body & Soul Festival and Electric Picnic Andreas’ musical trio group The Latchikos will also perform their wild fiddle playing, gaelic beats and witty comical lyrics.
