By all accounts, Sheeran killed it in Cork last night.
We all know that Mayo fans love to get celebrities across the world to jump on the #MayoForSam bandwagon, but judging by Ed’s performance in Páirc Uí Chaoimh he’s already got his colours pinned to the mast.
Ed Sheeran endeared himself to the rebel county last night by performing in a Cork GAA jersey throughout the set. Footage from the venue make it look like a spectacular night.
What a fantastic first concert in the new stadium!
We look forward to doing it all again tomorrow! #EdCork #EdIrishTour pic.twitter.com/rcTlBoUxyK— SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh (@PaircUiCha0imh) May 4, 2018

Website Setlist.fm has also posted Sheeran’s setlist from last night, which should give his fans some hints as to what they can expect if they’ve got tickets for any of his Irish dates throughout May. It certainly looks like Sheeran was playing the hits.
