St Patrick's Day 2010

[MissWalshy]

Perhaps this is why Philip always holds back on dates until its 100% confirmed.

Newton Faulkner though - fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck I feel dirty, I really do.

Well looks like I'm coming over anyway..

Think of the positives, the Guinness will be cheap !

I've just been informed we've been unable to find a suitable venue in London for St Patrick's Day.

I'd say the guys and girls on the East Coast of the U.S are pissing themselves laughing at us smug fuckers who thought we were in for the gig of the year

Oh well, who is playing Paddy's night in the Dog & Sausage anyway?

NNNNNNooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe the Pogues are up for playing a gig on Paddys day and can't find a suitable venue, can it not go outside of London Mr c, surely you'd sell out any of the other usual cities, Brum ,Manchester,Glasgow, Dublin ?? anywhere

[NewJerseyRich]

I bet Roseland is still available. Sorry I had to say it...

[mats]

I was looking forward to this sooooo much. Would have been better than Christmas. Glad I never booked that flight....

The Assembly rooms Leamington Spa is available. Its a cracking venue, holds about 1500, up close and personal. Some well known bands are starting to play at this realatively new venue.

Big day in Brum, paddys day now, the Rainbow warehouse could be a possibility, i believe they can shut adderley street down and give it a 5000 capacity,the Council would love it, all the security would be in place for the procession , worth a look

Seems like this guys organizing it all and the Rainbow is set up for a gig
details call Kent Davis on 0774 7037821 or email stpatricksbirmingham@gmail.com

Oh well, never mind, still got two days off, suppose I'll have to find something else to do with it.

BTW, looks like the Liverpool Echo Arena's free.

I've just been informed we've been unable to find a suitable venue in London for St Patrick's Day. We did actually have Hammersmith Apollo on hold but so too did another act and unfortunately they were quicker to the draw than we were and snapped it up just before we did. Sorry that I raised false hopes, I'm quite pissed off about it myself.

What kind of management do you have there?

Is Joey Cashman back?

I wouldn't say pissing myself...but a little chuckle would be understandable, wouldn't it?

Thats a real shame I know Phillip wanted to circumnavigate the alternative venue bit, but I wonder if their management looked at the Coronet for a couple of nights (its a good medium sized venue) - It was only a thought that with such a short time to go versus the word getting out there etc that to sell out the vast 8000 odd capacity apollo might be a tall order......thats not to say there arent legions of loyal fans who would go, but other take it or leave it people may be washing their hair etc . . . . me, I havent any left so would probably have to go to the gig.

It's a pitty you cannot play in Londen. Glad we did not book a flight. London is nice but it's so much nicer with The Pogues. Maybe it's time to introduce St. Patrick's Day to the Dutch! Please come over to Holland. We've lots of venues that would be suitable: Paradiso in Amsterdam, Tivoli in Utrecht and De Pul in Uden.

I'd say you are 10000000% correct, sir. Boston here reporting to piss myself.
