The Medusa Fora

Hi all,

I was a twat and didn't book my ticket in time and I'm desperate to go to the monday Brixton show because thats when my mates are going (annual tradition). If there's anyone who's got a spare ticket or isn't fussed about what day they go (or would rather go to the last show!)would they please consider selling me their ticket? I know it's a long shot but I'm pretty desperate

Anyway, cheers.

any ideas where i can get hold of 2 tickets for the birmingham gig as i promised my 14 year old daughter to take her to her first concert this year and have found its sold out.I have followed the pogues for 22 years and have always done a gig every year.I am looking for 2 tickets for the birmingham gig and i am willing to pay a sensible price for them, due to work i cannot attend any of the other shows, so if anybody has 2 tickets can you let me know please

Mate, this is London in December; you need to leave your sunglasses in Italy.

Besides, it's advisable not to take your sunglasses near Shane. He has history.

Thank you mates! Yes, I was forgetting the old, dear, ice-cold climate of London in december... sunglasses are not a great idea you are right... and after all, there must be a reason if Shane calls them "the dark streets of London"...

Hi, I've got one standing floor ticket for the Pogues I've got to sell, as I'm leaving the country sooner than I thought. the price is 55 euro. If anyone is interested email me at jim_kuliak@yahoo.ca. with this ticket you can get as close as you want to the stage depending on how early you arrive. wish I could see em.
cheers

FYI for anyone looking for a ticket to the Manchester show....a facebooker is looking to part with one standing ticket, see the "Pogues" page on FB

Only a few days then it's finally time again. Christmas starts for me this year on 20/12/2010. Is there any news as far as the setlist? I hope to hear this year Turkish Song and Lullaby. Who sings with Shane FONY?

Any chance of Shane rehearsing any of the songs backwards, forwards or middlewards??? . I would love to hear Spider do Love you till the end but hey. Im just really excited already. Bring on the 17th

Got my tickets for the Irish shows 5 nights in Ireland 3 with the Pogues WOW! One thing that would make this a perfect trip....if the band could play Straight to Hell. I saw you guys for the first time in '91 in San Francisco.They were offering refunds because of an incomplete lineup and replacement (Joe Strummer).It was an awesome show. When the Pogues started playing STH and the the pipes kicked in it was eerie,made the hairs on my arms stand up.Can the band play it again?

There were two shows at the Warfield. I was at one of them. I wonder if it's the same one you were at? Fucking awesome show.

They won´t play it but they always use the song as an intro.

I think it was the first night but that was many brain cells ago so I can't say for sure.Yeah I know they've been using STH for their pre show but if you don't ask,they won't play it.

Can't wait to the birmingham show. Been to two of the pogues gigs. Last years one in brum was outstanding. Was nice to see phil back onstage. Shane was in top form then too! Even gave his two pints of untouched g and t to the crowd. Roll on 18th dec.

I'm going to the first Dublin gig and I can't wait. I never thought that I'd get to see them live because I'm totally skint at the moment, but luckily I got this as an early christmas present. It will be my first ever Pogues gig, wooo!

Will you be taking the Pogue Mahorns out of storage?
