Request to the Pogues

[CPoguesFan]

I have never been on one of these before so excuse me if this is wrong. A friend told me that you could contact Pogues band members here. I am going to the Chicago shows (both) in March. I have a request for someone who would kill me if they knew I was asking this. I live in a small town in South Dakota and we have the pleasure of a Neurologist from Ireland living here. He found out last year (diagnosing himself) that he has Lou Gehrigs disease. His lungs went fast so he is on oxygen now -- don't pity- him he'll get pissed off. What sucks is with new FAA rules because he is on oxygen he can no longer fly on US airplanes and therefore can't go home to finish his days. His family comes to visit him, so he's not alone. And he has a lot of friends to make sure he can get to the bar each night. But the whole situation still kind of sucks to watch. Is there anyway someone from the band could leave a note for him, his name is Harry, I would love to bring it back for him.

Remind us in early March and we'll organise something. It might help if you register on the site in case we need to exchange PMs (private messages).

I just registered, and again, I appreciate your help. Harry is a huge Pogues fan and quite a proud Irishmen, even a little note from you would mean a lot to him.
