The true reason why Shane left The Pogues in `91

Post Fri Aug 31, 2007 6:13 pm

I was listening to a Pogues song in Real Player when this info popped up:

"Original singer Shane MacGowan was kicked out of the band for either bad oral hygiene or heroin addiction, or both." :shock: :shock:

You know, look through the internet and get some late 91 video. You´ll see why.

Or use CBoH (Central Brain of Humanity) to look for reasons. By the way, CBoH is sometimes called Google :wink:

Been a Pogues fan since 88 so I know about Shane´s health. I just though it was funny that not brushing your teeth would be a reason to be kicked out of the band.

Apparently, it's difficult to tell jokes on the internet.
