Tommy Tiernan introduced new rules for his shows after an audience member disrupted a performance in Galway, ensuring a distraction-free experience for everyone.
Galway: Tommy Tiernan had to make some changes after a recent show. An audience member was using their phone during a performance, which caused a distraction.
During the show at Leisureland, Tommy paused his act to address the situation. He called out the person in the colorful jacket, explaining how their phone light was distracting everyone.
Tommy told the audience member to enjoy the show like everyone else, and the crowd applauded his response. This incident led to a new rule for his performances.
Now, before each show, audience members will receive Yondr phone pouches. These special cases lock away phones, helping to create a distraction-free environment.
After the show, the team will unlock the pouches. If someone needs their phone for health reasons, they’ll get a special band to wear.
Tommy’s show is wrapping up its ninth series, which has featured great guests and lots of laughter. Viewers loved the heartfelt moments, especially from Seamus O’Rourke.
Seamus shared touching stories about his late father, reading from his book, “Leaning on Gates.” The series has received praise for its guest choices and engaging content.
