The Original Rudeboys celebrate gold status

If you were wandering down Andrew's Street yesterday evening and were wondering why half the city centre had suddenly gone piri-piri mad, it was actually a glimpse of one of town's hottest new acts they were after.

To mark the huge chart success of their debut album This Life in 2012, Nando's played host to the East Wall's finest and Glenda Gilson was on hand to present Neddy, Burch and Walshy with their first gold disc.

Straight after, the trio did what they do best and delivered an energetic set in front of competition winners, as well as the likes of Mick Pyro, Diana Bunici, our own Mark Hogan and the night's MC Dermot Whelan.
