Before taking to the stage, however, he decided to pull a few pints for thirsty music fans.

The Gay community have got everything the wanted. I agree and I voted yes to Gay marraige, but now that you are all accepted members of society folks, stop campaigning, and get on with your life, and get out of our faces. That includes Varadkar.
@Randal McNally: it’s not all about campaigning. It’s about showing young people that there are people just like them out there, it’s about celebrating everything we gave achieved as a community and being thankful that we live in a country like Ireland where this is possible because to some the rights we have here are unimaginable.
@Randal McNally: “The Gay community have got everything the (sic) wanted.” – “stop campaigning, and get on with your life, and get out of our faces.”
There’s no way you voted Yes to marriage equality, pathetic attempt, and when you say ‘our’ faces, do you mean the faces of conservative bigots?
PRIDE is a festival, like Electric Picnic (music), Paddy’s Day (getting hammered) or Blooms Day (Joyce), it’s a celebration, not a protest.
@Atheos Euripides: blooms day and St Patrick’s day are Irish heritage you can’t be serious comparing music festivals and gay pride as just as important and music festivals don’t shut down city’s each to their own and all but what a load of shhhite.
Nothing personal but stupid shutting down the city for this what is the point seriously it’s 2017 ?
@Morizy: It is 2017, welcome to the 21st century.
About time Ireland came out of the stone age.
