Join us on FRIDAY 29th NOV at Toales Live Venue for a night of top-quality, hilarious stand-up comedy with our monthy EL PASO COMEDY CLUB!
TICKETS: €10. Show starts at 8PM
Featuring the Award-winning Eric Lalor, one of the most sought after comedians in the country. Having started way back on Des Bishop’s Joy in the Hood, Eric has gone on to forge a successful career in comedy, appearing at all the major comedy festivals and headlining venues up and down the country.

Some people will recognise him as the villain from Fair City, the gangster, Cathal Spillane. Indeed Eric has a number of acting credits including Amber, Brigid & Eamonn, The Commute and COVID based comedy, Socially Distant, plus a number of short films.

He has won Irish comedian of the year twice as voted by the readers of entertainment.ie, and now his new podcast, You Must Be Jokin, which he co-hosts with fellow Ballymunner, Willa White, has won Best Podcast at the Digital Media Awards.

Having recently stormed his new show, Lol’er By Nature at the Liberty Hall Theatre, Eric is at the top of his game and one of the most reliable comedy acts in the country.

Special guests on the night are Taran O’Sullivan, Graham Francis, Druhv Ghandi and of course your fabulous El Paso Comedy Club host for the evening: Elizabeth Redmond!
ALL this comedy for just a tenner??? That’s what El Paso Comedy Club is all about - an evening filled with laughter and entertainment that won’t break the bank..... See you there! .p.francis

Join us this Saturday at Toales Live Music Venue for an electrifying performance by Post Punk Podge & The Technohippies! Hailing from Limerick, Ireland, Podge is a dynamic singer, rapper, and musician who blends the essence of punk with a creative twist. An accomplished violinist, he aims to transform the brown envelope—a symbol of corruption and greed—into a beacon of self-expression, defiance, and joy.

Known for their exhilarating live shows, this energetic band delivers a sensory overload that you won’t want to miss! With Podge commanding the stage with the intensity of punk legends, he is joined by Dr. Asparagus Montague on backing vocals, Mr. Cash 4 Gold on guitar, and DJ Jurassic Park 2 on laptop and controller.

Since summer 2018, they have left a mark at major festivals like Body & Soul, Electric Picnic, and Knockanstockan, blending genres and infusing humor with a strong social message. Podge’s lyrics delve into topics like depression, anxiety, and the current socio-political climate, all delivered with his signature wit. They refuse to be boxed into any category, celebrating their unique expression through post-punk and beyond.

After the show, get ready for an exciting DJ set from Charles Heady of The Mary Wallopers—expect the unexpected!

Tickets are available now for just €10 (plus booking fee). Doors open at 8 PM, and the show kicks off after 9 PM on Saturday, November 9th. Don’t miss out!
