VIDEO: Ready to feel patriotic? Leitrim GAA have released footage of heroic anthem rendition

No rehearsal, no backing track, no problem.

Last Sunday's AIB All-Ireland junior football championship semi-final between Rockcorry and Ardnaree almost started on a bum note when the recording of Amhrán na bhFiann gave up the ghost in Páirc Sean MacDiarmada. You ain't seen nothing till you've seen a Leitrim man in a crisis, and GAA stalwart Seán Ó Súilleábháin grabbed the microphone and embraced the old stage adage, "The show must go on". Well, Leitrim GAA today posted video of Ó Súilleábháin's rendition on Facebook and it is as magnificent as what you had imagined. Move over Nadia Forde, this is the man to sing the Soldier's Song from here on out.
