VIDEO: Shaggy made this Irishman’s dream come true by rapping with him before heading out for pints

Paul Moore

Mr Boombastic is some man.

Much like the inevitability that rain is going to fall in Ireland, we knew that Shaggy’s gig at Toners, Dublin would be a little bit special because Mr lova, lova rarely disappoints.

Part of Orchard Thieves’ Bold Hour – the Rubberbandits were also performing in Cork and Spencer Matthews was doing a gig in Galway – loads of people turned up to see the great man in action and by the looks of things, it was deadly.

JOE reader Gavin Farrelly has been impersonating the singer ever since he was a teenager but the Cavan man finally got to meet and rap alongside the ‘It Wasn’t Me’ singer. Take a look.

Here’s some more footage of what the packed gig looked like.

If you’re looking for boombastic romantic fantastic lover that’s capable of going all night long then Shaggy is definitely your man because straight after the gig, he decided to head out to have a few drinks around Dublin.
