On his recent Podge and Rodge TV appearance Shane wore a jumper.

I thought he was older than 39 - but it also says age 39 on The Popes website bio of Tommy. If he was 39 he'd be younger than me (aged) 40 but when I met him several years ago he seemed older than me by a few years.

I completely agree with Mr Chevron. Having first saw and even met The Pogues in 1984 aged 18 and then many times subsequently, I can say the first time I saw the return of The Pogues in 2001 was incredibly emotional. When I walked out of Birmingham Academy that night I thought it would be the last t...

Tom was a great musician and a great showman. He will be very sadly missed. I only ever met Tom once and it was several years ago. But fittingly, it was in a bar and he was playing his banjo. Condolences to all who knew and loved him. RIP.

George Cat,
I am serious - my questions are intended to be rigorous - not humorous.

Not a nibble.

As a gesture of goodwill I have a spare ticket for Glasgow that following meagre and lousy interest I am now prepared to send as a Christmas gift to the first person who can PM me with the correct answers to the following questions: 1. What was on the B side of the 7 inch single of The Pogues 'Dark ...

The New Musical Express used to call Shane 'Fred Perrier'. Based upon the stylish Polo/Tennis Shirt to which the English Tennis Player Fred Perry lent his name. British Mods and Skinheads liked these shirts. Shane tended to prefer red ones. I suspect it was the same one he wore all the time until it...

PM me if you could use a ticket for Glasgow.
Cheers,
Andy

I've got a spare ticket for Glasgow. I'm happy to sell it at face value - anyone interested? PM me if so!

Hello,
Can you add me to the list! I've booked the week off work for the shows so obviously will be in tow with the gang in Birmingham if you will have me.
