Well known Longford DJ and radio presenter, Oliver McNerney (aka Oliver Muldoon) and his wife Stella, had the great honour of meeting Irish singer/songwriter Gilbert O’Sullivan during his 50th Anniversary World Tour at the weekend in Australia.
Gilbert O’Sullivan performed at the Crown Theatre in Perth on Saturday, March 24 and after the fantastic concert, watched by over 1,200 fans, Oliver and his wife Stella, met with the musician backstage and had a brief chat.
Longford town native, Oliver, previously worked as a presenter with Shannonside Radio for over 20 years and he now works with Capital Community Radio in Perth.
