Hi phil, I was just woundering if you could give us an idea as to what your self and the rest of the band members are doing these days? after touring the US! Thanks.

Well, I've been in Ireland recording that difficult third Radiators album and in New York dropping in on the two Broadway/Off-Broadway shows with which I have some small involvement. I can't speak for the others but I'm pretty sure they're all busy with their own extra-Pogue jobs and projects.

Right now, I'm in London, where tonight I saw the best production of Arthur Miller's The Crucible it has ever been my pleasure to witness. Miller wrote it in 1953 as a response to the McCarthy witchhunts of his day, though it is set in Salem, Massachusetts in the 17th Century as a village succumbs to hysterical group-think. But what is most significant now about this RSC production is how extraordinarily it resonates as a damning critique of Bushworld. "If you are not with this court," declaims Judge Hathorne, "you are against this court" and you feel the collective intake of breath of the audience. This is the mark of a truly great play - that it continues to comment on the times even after its author has died. For that reason, and for its unmatched craftsmanship, I nominate The Crucible Archie Miller's best play.

I was fortunate to chat for a while to a Pogues fan, Gerard, who said hello to me at the Gielgud Theatre. Don't know if he reads these forums but if he does, Hey Gerard!

The Crucible is booking to June 17.

...I nominate The Crucible Archie Miller's best play...

Seconded, despite an appalling ignorance of his other works, besides 'Death Of A Salesman' of course. 'The Crucible' is a great play indeed. My wife and I were discussing it literally two days ago, regarding the New Grand Nation of Fear style of hysteria that 'certain' people are propagating.

Well, he wrote some real stinkers towards the end (notably The Ride Down Mount Morgan and Resurrection Blues) but for Salesman, The Price, All My Sons and A View From The Bridge, let us give thanks.
