A band you will have heard of. Seen them live. The late Alex Higgins was there, the crowd was mental and the band played twice as fast live..
Seen them a few times, back in the 80s they were great but Shane McGowan is a wreck these days although he can still belt them out (when he's not too pissed and can remember the words!) My fave.....
At least he spent some of his money sensibly and got his teeth fixed Before... please log in to view this image After... please log in to view this image
Listening to these a lot lately, and they've just been announced as support to Foo Fighters when they return in September...
Was at school with Shane...know his family well. Went out one night with Shane and his dad....that was an experience! any way, here's my personal Pogues favourite...
Great stuff thanks, I'm curious though where do you guys hear these new bands? This forum is fantastic for me in finding new stuff to listen to, really grateful and keep em coming. Back in the day I listended to late night radio - Sounds of the 70s, John Peel etc but I don't get a lot of time these days thanks to work
John Peel is a legend to me. When I posted this thread I wanted it to be a bit like listening to one of his shows, random and all music welcome.
Brilliant stuff! I used to listen to the Friday Rock Show with Tommy Vance in Radio 1 as well. 9pm to midnight I think! Remember that?
