Hello Europe,
It might seem as though we have been ignoring you of late, but we've got plans for August.
In the meantime, keep your eyeballs white and keep your needles clean. Spider


Excellent news! Would match the rumor at shane.com a few days ago, when Ingrid said the Pogues might play an openair gig at the Museumsplatz, Bonn, Germany in August.

Hope, they won't ignore Germany this time! 8)

hahaha, that's absolutely true.. For starters some child porno websites... :lol: But his speech that day was funny though and he was right.. It was a little bit a strange 'vennue'.

@ Mick.. At some point on the dvd Roger is walking with a white mug I got from him later on... It still has remains of the herbal tea he was drinking in it.. :lol: 8)

"I rather had in mind the gutter outside Dingwalls in London. But then who hasn't?"

Famously that was a drunk Joe. A cop found Pete in the gutter in Wardour Street, but that's not to say he didn't do the same outside Dingwalls.. Heroin is such a leveller, don't you think?

Joe, Pete, Dingwalls, Wardour Street............these Spokesmen For A Generation are interchangeable when it comes to their pitiful attempts at slumming it.

By the way, did you know that half the Italian restaurants in London - the good ones - close on Good Friday? Bloody Catholics!

Spider on poguesoffical myspace:
It seems i jumped the gun on this post. The Pogues is a democracy. The democracy spoke and it said "thanks but no thanks" to France & Germany this time.

:cry: maybe we get a concert for the 10 year Reunion Show Tour in 2011...
