Can't get time off work, but will do my utmost to get me there. Though I don't think I can usually get the tickets I need via pre-sale?
Brixton website says:
'The Pogues is once again touring and playing seething versions of its classics like "Love You 'Til The End" ...' Hmm.
I love the idea of doing a whole-album show - but yes, it will need Cait on board again!

Amazing news, if only to see MacGowan attempt all the character voices in The Gentleman Soldier
Any idea on Brixton prices anyone? Just saw £40+ quoted for Manchester

A Dublin or Belfast show would be nice, think there's a few fans in Ireland!!

My daughter who is now 22 used to sing along to this when she was younger doing the voices. Used to crack me up. She's too cool to try it these days

Ah, you should try to persuade her to do it again in celebration of the RS&tL shows! I'm really wanting to try to get there together with my girls (of similar age now), who do memorable versions of DOT and A Pair of...
And I'm also looking forward to hearing Shane do Billy's Bones. I've never been able to keep up with it vocally myself.

Yeah good luck with that - this will basically be an instrumental with incoherent mumbling in accompaniment*
*I realise this applies to a fair few of the other numbers also!

sCUNTthorpe it is then ha!Living in Nederland means i won't be going to Scunthorpe or any thorpe in December, i expect a lot of UK based Pogues fans ,which is the majority,would be hard pressed to get to any ot those gigs.Performing Rum,Sodomy & the Lash ,now that is something worth seeing,who will be singing as Jock Stewart? Good luck and enjoy those gigs,you lucky people.
