About
The Irish Comedy Tour takes the party atmosphere of a Dublin pub and combines it with a boisterous, belly-laugh trio. The clover -- make that clever -- comedians, whose ancestors hail from the Emerald Isle, include Detroit native Derek Richards; Boston-born Mike McCarthy; and New Yorker Jim Paquette.
Audiences howl at Richards' tales about his mom's dog, the holidays and dating a stripper. He has appeared on The Bob & Tom Show, XM and Sirius, and The Weather Channel's Top 10.
McCarthy's no-holds-barred humor has landed him on Comedy Central and Showtime. The "comedy barbarian," as he calls himself, takes no prisoners when it comes to poking fun at society's most sensitive topics.
And finally Paquette, who has fine-tuned his comedy chops across the country as a dueling piano performer, opens the show with riotous original songs that inspire audiences to clap along. The irreverent trio, which just released a DVD titled Dublin' Over, has performed at venues across the country.

by DrBec on 3/20/15Hard Rock Rocksino Northfield Park Club Velvet - NORTHFIELDThe Irish Comedy Tour was a wonderful date night activity for my husband and I. I am Irish so I found the jokes really funny, as did my husband. I loved that it was a mix of music and comedy. Very talented group. Would definitely go see them again.

by TKHummer on 3/20/15Hard Rock Rocksino Northfield Park Club Velvet - NORTHFIELDWe laughed so hard our sides hurt! The music was fun and we enjoyed the interaction with the musicians and comedians. The two featured comedians were hilarious and were different from one another...so there was a lot of variety in the material. It did get s little racy at times. Its definitely "R" rated. BUT it was balanced with family humor. I definitely recommend it for a fun date night!

Rating: 4 out of 5 Fun Irish comedy
by Guinnessron on 3/3/15Smith Theatre - BuffaloThis was definitely a fun night. I was surprised the show was 2 full hours long. It didn't feel that long. All of the comedians were funny but none were super hilarious. I enjoy all humor from clean stuff right through the dirtiest and most mean spirited there is. This was middle of the pack. Nothing too edgy & I can't imagine anyone being offended by it. Overall a really fun night for me and my wife.
Rating: 3 out of 5 Amusing evening/impossible reviewing
by Trinitygrandma on 3/16/14Effingham Performance Center - EffinghamThe fiddler and guitarist were very talented and amusing. The first comedian was excellent...I can see him being a performer in Las Vegas or on a tour similar to Blue Collar Comedy Tour. The second comedian was a letdown after the first. His sophomoric humor was more reminiscent of frat boy humor than that fitting a theater like yours. The review process is way too complicated. Chose outrageous nicknames and all were rejected.
