I can't believe the Pogues are up for playing a gig on Paddys day and can't find a suitable venue, can it not go outside of London Mr c, surely you'd sell out any of the other usual cities, Brum ,Manchester,Glasgow, Dublin ?? anywhere

The Assembly rooms Leamington Spa is available. Its a cracking venue, holds about 1500, up close and personal. Some well known bands are starting to play at this realatively new venue.

Yeah, that's happening in my local, Clarke's. Terry, Jem and Philip are staying at my place, Shane at his folk's place and Spider, Andrew, James and Daryl are in the Devil's Bit B&B. Tom in Clarke's is expecting a bit of a stir about 9ish and the boys should be in the corner by the pool table ready to kick off at about 10.

Who's the 'Guest'? Walshy? Niall? Fionn?

How was the show the other night?? Was Shane Drunk? Were tears shed for the famine?

We did actually have Hammersmith Apollo on hold but so too did another act and unfortunately they were quicker to the draw than we were and snapped it up just before we did. Sorry that I raised false hopes, I'm quite pissed off about it myself

Am I right to assume that this now means no gig on St Patricks night at all?

At this late stage, it seems unlikely we will find an alternative venue anywhere that makes sense.
