Glen Hansard has invited everyone to a sing-song at Apollo House on Tuesday afternoon

You should definitely go, and slip into John Mulligan’s pub for a pint afterwards.

We’ve heard a lot about Apollo House lately, where Glen Hansard, Jim Sheridan, Damien Dempsey et al have led an act of ‘civil disobedience’ by turning it into a shelter for Dublin’s homeless.

Glen spoke about his very noble, illegal act on last Friday’s Late Late Show.

We also shared the story of how businesses are helping those in need by sending food down to Tara Street but Hansard has decided to feed people’s souls as well as their bellies.

With that in mind, he’s staging a sing-song down on the corner of Poolbeg Street and Tara Street at lunchtime on Tuesday.

Go on, head along, and if you want to contribute a few quid all the better.
