Tom Lanham of the San Francisco Examiner spoke with Andrea Corr from the Irish group The Corrs. The quartet got to play before Ireland’s Prime Minister Bertie Ahern and U.S. President George W. Bush on Wednesday for the annual Speaker’s Irish Luncheon. Andrea said of the opportunity, “It ended up going really well. It was weird playing and looking down and there’s the president, but he was very nice — he came up to us afterwards and said that we were great, and that we kind of reminded him of music he likes, which is country-and-western.”

WENN reports Jim Corr of the Irish pop group The Corrs would like to live a rock ‘n roll lifestyle but his female sisters/bandmates won’t let him. Sharon Corr revealed her brother would be the most likely to throw a TV out the window, “You know, it’s not so cool if you’re up in a room with your family, drinking, and you throw it out of the room.”

“It’s much better if you’ve got a load of chicks around. It’s not cool if you do it with your sisters. Totally different vibe. Definitely not rock’n’roll.”
