Finding a music star in your bar one night is certainly an endorsement of your establishment.<\/p>\n
But when Imelda May returns the following night, then you know you\u2019re doing something right!<\/p>\n
The \u2018Should\u2019ve Been You\u2019 singer may have rang in the New Year on the BBC in the company of Jules Holland.<\/p>\n
But the Dublin singer knows there\u2019s only one place to be at the start of the New Year and that was The Forge bar in Donegal Town.<\/p>\n
Imelda stunned customers when she popped in a couple of days ago but she\u2019s almost a regular after calling back in the following day.<\/p>\n
Barman Mark Sweeney quipped \u201cShe\u2019s back. We must\u2019ve made a good impression.\u201d<\/p>\n
