WATCH: Derry man rewrites Whiskey in the Jar for best friend’s wedding speech

Alan Loughnane

This is very clever.

Most best man speeches these days involve a hefty dose of embarrassing stories for the groom, but John Moore wanted to be more creative than that.

He rewrote the words of the famous Dubliners track, Whiskey in the Jar, to suit the occasion and gave the entire audience at the wedding a laugh.

John wanted to do something memorable and he knew that everyone would know the words to the famous song.

We reckon he’s off the hook for a wedding present after this performance…
