The 2 Johnnies “Pints in a Field” – The Usual Podcast Madness – In a Field, to give it its full title sees the nation’s biggest podcast take the show that sold out 3Arena twice and blow it out in every direction for an outdoor show like no other.
“Bigger than Live Aid but of far less benefit to society,” said Johnny B “it’s going to be the greatest atmosphere in a rugby stadium since Ronan O’Gara kicked a drop goal to win the Grand Slam in 2009”
“They said it couldn’t be done or was that shouldn’t be done, anyway we’re doing it”, said Johnny Smacks
Part Live Podcast show, Part Live Gig, Part Athlone IT Rag Week 2004 and all The 2 Johnnies Madness, – Pints in a Field sees the Tipp boys welcome musical guests in the form of The 2 Johnnies Podcast legend & 00s dance megastar Basshunter and Ireland’s greatest girl band ever B’Witched, Paddy Fong and Noel Furlong will be in attendance as well as producer Maura and Neil the intern plus the Junior B All Stars live band and more to be announced.
The first stadium show for a podcast is the next step in The 2 Johnnies’ masterplan to have 70% of the population lining out for the Cahir Junior Bs by 2027 and comes on the back of a massive year with the weekly audience for their podcast topping 500,000, a critically acclaimed second series of their TV show, a daily radio show on 2fm and an epic appearance at Electric Picnic where new single “Smalltown Heroes” was established as an instant anthem.
