Dubliner Gavin James has admitted he’s “absolutely bricking it” ahead of supporting Ed Sheeran at his Croke Park gig next Friday.
James, who was chosen by Sheeran to be his Irish supporting act, was told by the English superstar that he’ll surely headline at the famous venue himself within five years.

While Sheeran’s faith in him is incredible, the 24 year old Dubliner is still understandably nervous about performing in front of 90,000 people at next Friday’s show.
I’m absolutely bricking it. But I really can’t wait. I’ve been to a few shows there thinking I’d love to actually play somewhere that big. I don’t even know how I’m going to be feeling beforehand, but I can’t wait for it.
