COMEDIAN and podcaster extraordinaire Marc Maron will be back in Ireland shortly for a Dublin show as part of his new stand-up tour, wryly titled A Few Parts of The World.

For years, this entertainingly grumpy US funnyman harboured one of his insane grudges against good old Ireland thanks to having an underwhelming experience at one of our comedy festivals – but apparently that's all water under the bridge now.

In fact, the LA based comic's last couple of visits here have gone so well that he's actually now thinking of emigrating from Trumpland some day.

No doubt the star of Maron and Netflix's GLOW will be speaking to this urge at his Vicar Street show on Thursday April 26, the last few tickets for which will surely be almost completely gone by the time you're actually reading this.

Move quickly if you want to hear about that and whatever else is on Mr Maron's reliably feverish mind.

:: Tickets €33.50 via Ticketmaster.ie and Ticketmaster outlets.
