well i didnt exactly say i wanted his address--thats not important and that would be an intrusion i agree. no--what im looking for is just a feel of his home town because i know its a place he loves so much. thats not asking too much is it???i have always liked to visit hometowns of the living and the dead..

Try Philly Ryan's Pub in Nenagh town. Even if Shane's not there, you'll meet a grand group of lads, the Governor especially.

Jesus Mary and holy saint Joseph, it's hardly a state secret which village in Tipp Shane comes from! :wink: He shouts about it all the time, sings about it in his songs (Silent Scream), put his cottage on the cover of one of his singles ...

Shane bought a flat in north London earlier this year and moved back.

and as Macrua's site tells, his dinner parties are becoming so legendary they regularly make it into the newspapers :shock:
