It was an emotional gig for the Mullingar man as the night he had been waiting for all his life came true - playing an hour up the road from his home house to 70,000 people in Stradbally
Niall Horan said he was the most nervous he has ever been in his life as performed to his biggest solo crowd at Electric Picnic.Visibly moved by the moment and the warm welcome from the crowd, the 29-year-old said: “I cannot believe I’m here. “This is just absolutely ridiculous. I haven’t played a show in Ireland in five years. It’s good to be back to the midlands and to be here at the famous Electric Picnic with all of you beautiful Irish people.
“I’ve been waiting for this night for the last year and a half and I want it to be one of the nights of my life and I’ve a sneaky suspicion it might be.” But as the home crowd went wild and changed Ole at every opportunity, he told of his pride of his own country, and the meaning of his homecoming gig.
"And it's great to be back in the Midlands, only an hour away from home, and have this. Thank you all so much.""This is a country with less than five million people - and the noise that we make worldwide is insane. And as long as you would like me to, I'm happy to fly the flag for our little country all over the planet.
