[philipchevron]

No, not this year.

I’m　very　sad

really? so what do you expect after 17 years of absence? there has to be some promotion for that bringing you back in mind...i know it´s difficult....think it only works with new stuff...germany is the 3rd biggest music market in the world...should be worth it.

After 17 years, we expect absolutely nothing. It is always a pleasant and welcome surprise when people are prepared to book us for large sums of money.

But if they don't, that's OK too. We all have good lives to be getting on with. We are not performing seals willing to do some "promotion" so that we may be "brought back to mind". That's for sweaty little boys who still need to be educated in the size of international record "markets" and who, moreover, have yet to learn that while they are busy wrecking their health and sanity on badly remunerated "promotion" with the carrot of future riches dangled in front of their hungry eyes, record companies, promoters, agents and managers all mysteriously contrive to make top dollar from Day One.

We are The Pogues, man. The freakin' POGUES!!

As a total outsider to the music industry, my only inside knowledge comes from my brother-in-law who grew with the Mothersbaugh brothers of DEVO.

Confirming what Mr. Chevron said, he was told they made more money
from having their music in the movie Casino then their net income from years of touring.

Mr Chevron,
I will give you the details when we'll fix the date of the gig and everything else; but now, the offer you can't refuse is: a live concert for free (just a good italian dinner and some red wine) in a little place in Milan for maybe three hundred people (funny and antifascist people).
You can send your answer to tomzetropical@yahoo.it.
Bye and thanks

Thanks for the link, I hadn't seen that interview. Shane seems so much happier there than anything I've seen in a long time, it's nice to see him speak of his friends so fondly. As for Belfast, didnt they play on the 2004 tour? Judging by the numbers travelling down to Dublin by train I don't see any problem selling out Belfast. Get your finger out PROMOTERS.
