Blah blah blah bad teeth blah blah got in a fight with his razor blah blah.

What I want to know is:

1) What kind of douche-bag event photographer uses a flash?
2) How did this douche-bag event photographer not get the shit beat out of him by the security monkeys?

What is the story with the black glove on the left hand. I don't remember this look from previous tours. Has Shane been listening to Michael Jackson on his iPod (sic) recently?

He also wore a black wolly beanie hat. When he walked onstage in Befast, he raised his gloved fist a la Republican terrorist :roll:

A homage to Ted Hawkins?

To Saint Padre Pio.
While his beanie is a homage to Randle McMurphy..

Shane flirts with terrorism?! Awful! Somebody should warn him, steal his beanie and save his image.. Poor thing, he hasn't the slightest idea where gloved fists can lead..
I anticipate a serious talk on Respublicanism, drinking and all that jazz..

It would not surprise me as it seems the years are catching up with me. However, I went back and looked at photos from the shows I attended and no black glove.

Time to enrich it looking at photos from the shows you didn't attend. It can be educative and broaden your horizons..

I figured you would have several links for me to review. Now I fell all disappointed... :wink:

I am certain that "Republican terrorists" are only one of many groups to use the clenched fist salute...

Absolutely. But given he was in Belfast and his previous forays into republican lyrics, he's hardly pretending to be a Black Panther.

Fists should be banned in Belfast, obviously. I propose chopping hands off as the only measure that can take the strain off and improve the atmosphere of fear and recrimination in the region. It will be the first step towards restoration of mutual confidence..
