Frustrating Pogues

[Eric V]

OK - this is embarrassing - my Canucks lose to the Swiss and the Czechs... I am going to zip it.

Disgruntled Canuck

Well.... look at the sorry state of affairs. Don't we feel silly. US and Canada both out of it.

...and yes, I basically had to part the Red Sea to get myself there.

I can't complain that my favorite band is even still playing these days!

I'm just happy as hell that they've even decided to play on the some continent...

Trip of a lifetime. I'm not thinking about how long it will take me to pay it off.

It is going to be an awesome trip down to Boston for the show, great seats great beer, and great music...We are coming from Ontario, christ it does not cost that much to drive down!!!

I'm travelling from Norway to see the Pogues in New York. Worth every norwegian kroner! There's only two bands in the world I would do that for: The allmighty Pogues and Slayer!

Yeah!

Shush! I've been telling myself that such a thing would be too expensive for anyone, and yet, here we have someone actually doing it. Hope you have a wonderful time, though!

*misunnelig* Tror jeg nettopp fikk et lett grønnskjær nå...

Saw Slayer in July (!?) 2001 in New York with Pantera and Morbid Angel.
Kttsch! Great gigs!

Guess I had better timing than you.

Thanks. Was pretty lucky. Found some affordable plane tickets through Iceland Air. And it looks like we can crash at a friend who lives in New York.

The trip is a surprise birthday gift to my girlfriend, who's 29 today.
Pogues is her favorite band. Well, eh, of course... Hehe.

Hvor i Norge bor du? Liten trøst kanskje, men Dubliners kommer til Oslo i April.

To the disgruntled Canadian in Toronto. I am from the Niagara area of Ontario. The cost to fly to NYC from Buffalo (just over one hour from Toronto) is only about $100 return. I am going to see the Pogues on March 19. I would also like to see the Pogues in Toronto but you hog towners have to also remember that not everything revolves around T.O.

P.S. I was one of those people at The Horseshoe Tavern where Phil Chevron and Terry Woods played and I'm sure that it was poor advertisement by the promotors. Everyone there including myself heard about the show from different web sites (shanemacgowan.com) and not from the media. What does this tell you?

Well said, I totally agree, the world MAY in fact revolve around NYC, so best to hop on a plane and go!! Besides, as a Londoner (ontario) the flight from detroit is cheap too!!

Lucky, lucky girlfriend! (And you too, of course, getting to reap the benefits of such a lovely gift *g*.)

Jeg bor i Skien, men tror jeg står over Dubliners og sparer penga i et håp om at det vil lønne seg å dra til England i sommer...

The Horseshoe Tavern?? I feel faint.

Oh, and by the way, I'm an eh-sayer and I hate hockey's brutality and the tax money squandered on arenas and. . . . don't get me started.
