Oh STFU. Put your dictionary down, it wasn't personal. I guess I hate Pogues tribute bands. I really don't see the fucking point. Though I would like to see the Ollin one because they are amazing on their own and I'm curious about the mix, it must be awesome. Indoctrinate? That's a bit of a stretch...

I hate it. Especially the mimicked scream. Fuck. Everyone here is too damn polite about this stuff. Ugh. Have a nice day. This is a group of musicians who normally play original music that formed a Pogues tribute band on the side for love of the Pogues.. it's supposed to be for fun and maybe to ind...

I saw a great Pogues cover band here locally a few years back ("Shane's Teeth") and asked the singer during intermission if they could do "Rainy Night..." He looked at me like I was an idiot, and said "No, no we can't." He said it so matter-of-factly that I indeed felt...

One of the good things about this cover is the vocalist takes inspiration from the strength in Shane's voice, instead of falling into the trap of caricaturing the frailties. James thanks for the nice comment... Personally I find that Shane's vocals typically really shine on his ballads as well as t...

I still tend to think that the "ginger lady" primarily refers to a bottle, not least because the ginger lady is "by" the bed... But one of the things about the song, as with many great songs, is that listeners can bring their own meaning to it. Great version, by the way. Thanks ...

that last post was from me again... didn't realize I was signed out when I posted.

Just wondering, did you plan the reference to 'the ginger lady....' and pick the clip because Ginger Rogers is also in it? Do you know the theory that Shane may of being referring to a bottle of whisky? Actually we picked the clip because of the rain theme and the dancing... Then the rest just fell...

8) Love it 8) Love the instrumentation and arrangement. An absolutely fantastic idea on the video :lol: I just wish the video had been edited so Fred's mouth and gestures matched the vocal in the second half of the song. Rather than have the clip run through in it's entirety. The dancing really mat...

The video is an amazing mash up with a Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers number called 'Isn't This a Lovely Day (To Be Caught in the Rain)' from the 1935 movie Top Hat. Che...
