Hard to believe it’s been almost 20 years since “The Commitments” hit our screens and to celebrate the stars of the movie are going back on tour with a string of gigs! Andrew Strong who played Deco Cuffe – the lead singer in “The Commitments” all those years ago dropped into 98FM to tell us all about the tour and what its like to be back with the old band!!  Andrew was just 16 years old when he got the part – what a voice! 12 MILLION people worldwide have a copy of “The Commitments” soundtrack so it was pretty successful.

The tour will re-unite Andrew Strong, Robert Arkins, Michael Aherne, Angeline Ball, Dave Finnegan, Bronagh Gallagher, Felim Gormley, Glen Hansard, Dick Massey and Ken McCluskey. You can catch them at Dublin’s 02 on Saturday March 19th 2011 and there will be a donation made to the Irish Cancer Society for every ticket sold.
