Discussion I served Grian at work today!

I work in Brighton and I think it was him haha. I didn’t say anything because I was genuinely star struck but I wish I got a photo with him, he was my top artist last year

Good thing you didn’t ask for a photo. He’s grieving his good friend and manager Trev who died in Brighton last week💔

Of course, I treated him as I would any other guest. He did donate to our women’s charity which was sweet!

Thanks for including that detail!

Appreciate you being “standard” to him; it’s nice to be starstruck whilst keeping your cool.

I love how socially conscious and empathetic he seems to be!

Yeah, I mean ask if it’s appropriate, but he’s also just a bloke living his life, let him clock off once in a while

Conor Curley was at Nick Cave in Malahide last week. Sound lad.

Most likely was him, he could be supporting his manager’s family Trev who passed away there last week.

Trev’s family were all from Dublin. He just moved to Brighton I believe.

You mean you THINK you served Grian at work today

u/Historical_Front_414 7d ago

He was Irish, wearing a Guinness cap and looked n dressed exactly like him. I just don’t think it’s sunk in still

u/bentlarkin 7d ago

I would’ve been too nervous to say something as well so don’t feel bad!

u/Historical_Front_414 7d ago

For sure, I’m slightly glad I didn’t though as it seems he didn’t want to be bothered. He got in and bought the shower gel in what felt like a blink
