    Has died aged 65

    A true character, great lyricist, performer, and all round legend when the words are often over used these days

    Thanks for everything Shane <rose><rose><rose><rose>

    A big character.
    I would have thought a drinking or smoking disease would have got him, but it was a brain infection in the end.

    RIP Shane <rose>

    such a sad loss,a wonderful musician and songwriter,was fortunate to see three of the
    pogues annual xmas shows a the brixton academy they ranged from the utterly sublime to the bloody awful=but never boring,the first dance with my daughter at her wedding was sally machalan wich will give you a good idea of how the evening progressed, god bless and rip and may the road rise up to meet you,
