I heard a rumour that here will be a gig in London at 20.12.2012.
Anyone who got some more information? Location? (Brixton??) Tickets? (When does the sale start)
If the gig is confirmed I'll plan a trip form cologne to London to see The Pogues.

Greetings from Kiel

Got the information from FB. And next Friday (05. Oct 2012) should start the sale.

If I knew for sure I would say for sure. All I can say with reasonable confidence is that we're looking at the possibility of London in mid-December but venue availabilty is not as open as some of you seem to think. I should know more by the end of this week or early next week.

There will not be, however, a tour.

Now Then...

POSSIBILITY:Possibility is the condition or fact of being possible. The Latin origins of the word hint at ability. Possibility also refers to something that "could happen", that is not precluded by the facts, but usually not probable

SO, this POSSIBILITY is like us mad Pogue fans before any gig - Are The Pogues really playing tonight? AND will Shane actually turn up??!!

To get to the point Mr C - Is there any POSSIBILITY of a night 'Up North' (Manchester or Leeds?)
Leeds 'German Market' finishes on Dec 16th, there's a few spare nights at The Academy & you would have plenty of time to get back to London P-L-E-A-S-E

No.

It's not Brixton, by the way. It's the 02. Brixton did not have two consecutive nights available, so we upscaled.

thanx
so it was a capacity issue then 2 nights at brixton to meet ticket demand ,good of the band /promoters to think of the fans ,i think there would have been a few dissapointed people if it was just one night at brixton
20,000 pogues fans in one place is that a record?

Great that there's a gig. Shame it's in a soulless corporate shed rather than Old London Town but hey a Christmas gig is a Christmas gig! I shall be there.

The 02 has a flexible configuration. It's unlikely we'll use all of it.
