At Home and Abroad

Compiled by Tommy Fegan, inspired by the shenanigans of Tom Mulligan’s Cobblestone’s Pub Dublin. From the heart of Dublin's traditional music scene comes a collection that'll have you laughing faster than The Dublin Reel! Tommy Fegan has spent decades gathering the finest quips, quotes, and jokes from sessions across Ireland, and beyond. Tom Mulligan has owned traditional Irish pubs in Ireland over the last 50 years, including the legendary Cobblestone Pub in Dublin. As Fear a Tí, and regular resident flute player (no jokes, please!), he has been well placed to eavesdrop on the often-wicked wit of slagging session players. Together the two Toms have come up with 201.5 memorable jokes and stories, with colourful illustrations to enable slow learners to get the joke! Between these covers, you'll find: Classic session stories that get better with every telling Musicians' most memorable two-liners The wit and wisdom from The Cobblestone's hallowed walls Time-tested techniques for surviving your first session (with your dignity mostly intact) Commissioned trad joke cartoons
