joedolan.jpgThey’re talking about him on RTÉ 2FM right now. Much loved showman, showband leader, and all round entertainer, Joe Dolan passed on at around 3pm today from a brain haemorrhage in the Mater Hospital in Dublin.

I worked the bar once at one of his gigs and he was a great performer and a proper gent.

Here he is, belting out one of his biggest hits:

There’s no show like a Joe show.

Sad news, indeed. RIP.
