Fair enough. Difficult task. But when I'm asked to write about something/someone that I don't know much about, the thing that I usually do before attempting it is to do a bit of research. Find out what's what and who's who, at the very least.

Because your photos are good. Muy good, in fact. Well worth the viewing.

Would it be a critism if I said you couldn't spell?

Just saw this. I did stop until the end. I am not a Pogues fan that much, so had no idea what songs were what. I was passed a set list at the end and also noted songs down from the show. Arena shows make you walk half a mile to store your camera after the 3 songs you get to shoot in the pit, so I missed a lot of the beginning of the gig messing about like that. This is not my main job, I do this for free. Tommy is another reviewer. Critism is welcomed but no need to slag me off. The lady on stage, I do not know who she was as she was not introduced to my knowledge, did look uncomfortable dancing with Shane. I say it as I see it. I would like some of you to try and write a review and take photos of a band you do not really know.

Plus if my works that bad why are muy photos on this website?

Not true, Not true

It's true. Danielle Millea is not up to the job of putting together a half decent review.

Good Stuff Mike. Just read your post. Spot On. Tommy must be her 'other' name.

In which case she should take more water with it in future.

Blame Shane, who loves to improvise, then

Perish the thought she actually might have to work for a living!

Thus leaving gigs long before end trustfully relying on acquired set lists...
Shite I do not want even to ask what she is doing for living...

Somebody wrote: The female vocals this time for the great Christmas track are supplied by a young women ... personally I would not like to be in her shoes.

I'd guess the feeling's mutual.

"...a young women" eh? Dedicated journalistic research there, obviously. And great editing skills.

I'd also guess that setlist was acquired rather than compiled by the journo herself.

Another journo who missed the gig?
Maybe he left before end, being in a hurry to deliver news to you, unrgateful and capricious readers! Deprived himself of Christmas in New York and joys of post-gig pint... Just to get what? "There was no Poor Paddy..." Triangle or Paddy, guitar or fiddle - who cares after all ?

I may be mistaken but I'm fairly sure this setlist is wrong. There was no Poor Paddy as far as I can remember. I presume Dog is the Irish Rover which was played
