I'm not kidding, when I was younger the Dark Lord was my absolute childhood crush 🙏🏻😂 Even nowadays I love to watch Daire Nolan perfom this part because he just feels his role and is such a convincing dark lord 😇❤️
He was my daughter's first crush too! She was 3 when she first saw him and said 'Ma he's the most beautiful man I've ever seen'!! I still remind her of it all the time, she's 27 now and it never gets old!
I've watched some of the "new" dark lords and the costumes overtake the scene instead of letting the dancer's talent and skill take center stage. Daire didn't need flashy, garish costumes. His passion, love and energy made the show enjoyable. Dance on my brother !!!!
"But there is no escaping the fact that when you see Daire Nolan, the OG Dark Lord, you are seeing a force to be reckoned with." Yes! He didn't need anything but his dance, body and face expressions. The best!
Come on Michael !! Make a proper documentary about this talented man, and also Bernadette Flynn. How about a 2 Hour documentary. 3 minutes and 30 seconds is barely even a teaser !!!🥺
I love how all the dancers who portray the dark lord in the show add their own flair to the character! Thanks for posting all these behind the scenes and OG videos!
What a beautiful tribute for Daire Nolan. I was translating ( most of the time I understand everything in your Language) But Daire Nolan was very young at the age under 10 when he was learning/practicing: Feet of Flames, just correct , because feets are full of energy . The moves are the Feets they are leading the Art - Dance - Movement. This is not for everyone, it's all within. Its in the energy systeem. I practicing Tai Chi and Karate . Its every day a challenge for being better and getting more out my Chi , it's just like water. I have buy 2 DVD's here in the Netherlands , you are famous here too. I receive it very soon ...my mind is always curious. I know that I will enjoy the shows here in my own home... Thank you very much for sharing many info and lots of video's. Best wishes for all and of course family . Stay safe !
The OG Dark Lord indeed. Personally I'd consider bringing back his purple outfit. The current football gear outfits of the bad guys are just too goofy.
I thought Daire was so very sexy playing this part. He was so gorgeous looking too. Not sure what he looks like today... We all change as we get older and sometimes not for the better...LOL.. Was that Daire at the end of this video recently?
I was 13 when LOTD came out and I remember that I wanted to be the bad guy...no offense to any one who's played this role but no one will ever be as good as Daire Nolan.

You are not alone, he is my first “bad boy” crush 😅 still think their performance “warriors” the best in whole “lord of dance”

I can never ever get enough of lord of the dance...best show ever in the world always will be...no other show will ever ever beat it end off!!!! 👏👏👏👏
I agree. I saw it 7 times at Wembley in 1998 and I still watch it regularly on line. It fills my heart with joy.
THESE OG VIDS ARE EVERYTHINGGGG!!! The most captivating Don Dorcha that ever lived!!
Come on Michael !! Make a proper documentary about this talented man, and also Bernadette Flynn. How about a 2 Hour documentary. 3 minutes and 30 seconds is barely even a teaser !!!🥺

Great Warrior
Not easy to play the villain!
Good guys make the best bad guys!
There would not be a show without the villain! Love and much respect! ❤

Aye maybe my clan Daire came back.
