Tickets booked this morning for Brixton on the 20th....can't bloody wait. Intriuged by the RS&L idea, but very much looking forward to it. Don't think I've ever seen 'Navigator' performed, and will be great to hear 'The Old Main Drag' again. I'm lucky to live close enough to London so that travel arrangements are not a problem, I hope that all you fellow Medusans who are posting about complicated train and coach issues manage to make it to the gigs. The countdown begins now! Happy bloody Christmas, and God bless The Pogues!

I have booked my tickets for Manchester Apollo. I now have to work out how we're going to get back (see my previous post).

I had a bit of trouble finding the right link. Both the ones from this site said that the tickets weren't on sale until Friday so I went to Facebook and clicked on the link there and it worked. Don't know what went on there.

So we are coming over from Germany and we will go to the Manchester Show. Tix and flights booked.

Any recommendations for a nice Hotel near the venue???????

Evidently the fact that "Wednesday 9:30" is a link is not clear. Sorry about that to those that found it problematic. The text has been updated to make it more obvious.

Is this true or are you just trying to will it to happen? I tried willing the Scunthorpe pub shows into existence, but it didn't work, just so you know.



My fav pogues album of all time

From what I've seen, Irish shows are usually announced at a later date for some reason.... here's hoping they're close to xmas and that would be the icing on the cake :D
