The Medusa Fora

I was wondering why none of the songs from The Snake or Crock of Gold are performed in any of the Pogues shows. I mean I'd love to here Snake with Eyes of Garnet or Back in the County Hell being played by these devilish musicians

There are No Radiators songs either?????

Wonder why?

BTW Pogues got so many songs that don´t make the set that are Brilliant. And THEM ARE POGUES songs.

Johan makes the point beautifully. We are not short of material.

Cause its a Pogues gig not a Popes gig

It's true, there are about a billion Pogues songs I'd like to hear before even remotely desiring them touching the Popes catalog (although, don't get me wrong, they had their moments).

I keep missing Hank's "Angel of Death" as a closing number from the Pope's days.
I'd love to hear it with the Pogues.

Moment - Holloway Boulevard, a cracking song!

Since Kitty is played.. maybe the Popes thought isn't too far off?

But I agree that there are so many Pogues songs to choose from that would be awesome too hear..
