First thing you have to do is accept the fact that you can't play like James does. I'm on Year #4 and I still can't get down his 2-1-3-1 thing down with any kind of speed or consistency (that's playing the second note of a chord, then the first, then the third, then the first again; try doing it as fast as he does and you'll see where my frustration is coming from). If you can get past that hurdle (or better yet, work your arse off to actually do it), then I would suggest "Boys From The County Hell" for a good combination of chord and line work, or "Repeal of the Licensing Laws," which is a fairly basic reel that can be picked up fairly quickly (hell, if I can play it, anyone can). When warming up for a show, I'll knock out the opening lines from "Streams of Whiskey," "Sally MacLelanne (actually the chorus)" (which are somewhat related) and "If I Should Fall From Grace." "Dirty Old Town," although played sans accordion, is a good line to learn, as well.

Steviebhoy1888, I play a Castiglione, and it's great.]]> philipchevron Mon, 06 Sep 2010 07:54:40 -0700 http://pogues.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&p=176769#p176769 http://pogues.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&p=176769#p176769 Re: Faber to publish the Pogues' memoir

I know this is the wrong category but this is the place where I have noticed that you respond to regularly!

I'm in Chicago and have turned a co-worker onto The Pogues(an elderly Irishwoman named Frances). As Paul Westerberg would say, she is a "maintenance engineer" (janitor) and has pictures of the band on the door of her storage closet at work, I know it would flip her wig if she could get a signed picture from you and the rest of the boys.

If it might be possible for you to fulfill this request, is there an address where I might be able to send a self-addressed stamped envelope?

If you might be able to send something to me outright, my address is:

Dan Mucha
Facets Multi-Media, Inc.
1517 W. Fullerton Ave.
Chicago, IL 60614

(My email is dan_mucha@yahoo.com)

Here's hoping that you guys make it back to Chicago and Frances and I can raise a pint with you.

Cheers,
Dan]]> RoddyRuddy Fri, 03 Sep 2010 07:18:22 -0700 http://pogues.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&p=176666#p176666 http://pogues.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&p=176666#p176666 Re: What's with the Popes? http://www.clanlondonmovie.com/clan/latest-news/

Back in 1989, The Pogues played The Reading Festival. This was preceeded by three dates in Ireland, one in Galway, one in Shinrone, and a third in Cork. I was at the Galway and Cork shows. Shane didn't exactly cover himself with glory at these two shows. To put it mildly, he was 'out to lunch'.

Anyway, the day before the 1st show Spider and some other Pogues were at the All-Ireland Gaelic Football semi-final between Dublin and Cork. I was at the game myself and Dublin, my team, were the victim of some poor refereeing decisions by an official from Sligo. I wasn't at Reading but heard a recording of the show. Just before 'Repeal', Spider broke in to song. To the tune of 'James Connolly' I think, he sang an original composition about the referee of the afore mentioned match. The lyrics were roughly as follows:

You can talk about Iscariot, Hitler, and the Tans,
How Pontius Pilate wiped the blood of Jaysus off his hands,
The SS, the Gestapo, and the bleedin' R.U.C.,
Not one of them's as treacherous as the Sligo Referee.

He did the dirty deed in Dublin City,
The place where all the girls are so pretty,
His crime is as old as history,
So what then was the fee?
Twenty pieces of silver,
Twenty pieces of silver,
Said the Sligo Referee!

At the end of 'Repeal', Shane referred to Spider as 'the Mozart of the blank generation'!

Happy memories indeed!]]> DzM Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:35:36 -0700 http://pogues.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&p=176563#p176563 http://pogues.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&p=176563#p176563 Re: Joseph Cashman

New Album Update
Here’s what I’m doing – I’m selling my next album NOW before I release it in an attempt to finance its production. This process has been ongoing since the beginning of the year.


As of today – April 10th – recording is 99% finished. I have one vocal and one harmony left to sing. I fly to London in the morning. Mixing starts on the 12th at Mick Glossop’s new studio.


The budget, which fluctuates from week to week, but should be fairly predictable now, is $60,000. So far, the presales have raised $30,000. These Cds will cost $11,000 to manufacture and ship. Tapete records will provide an advance. But we still need to sell the remaining 200 of the limited edition to balance the budget. These limited editions will not be available forever, even if we don’t sell all of them, because we need to manufacture them and ship them to our shop well ahead of the release date. I estimate that it will take our family and our new intern two weeks to ship all of them!................." Lloyd Cole Myspace blog
