Aye. You just cannae beat a hard one.

Just found out that on ebay you can get one of the rare editons with coloured photos and as another special a very rare single-vinyl-style promo flyer, that looks amazing. Thanx to Calum I already have one of these rare things, and what more can I say than that are AWESOME!

Not what I was expecting from this book, as there's not as much Pogues business going on compared to The Best Night out in Town.
Having said all that it's a general, brilliant read, and would appeal to a wide audience I think.
I'm pissed off that I didn't get one of those record flyer things though ( see above), and there appears to be a "better" quality copy available than the one I got on Amazon. WTF?
Still, I really enjoyed it. Now it's finished, what to do? Back to the whiskey bottle then!

Delboy.....hope you're not pissed off anymore, as you should now have a "record flyer thing" ( and mind, they are limited editions.....)
The Whiskey guzzling is understandable.
Thanks for your' comments on the book. Glad you enjoyed it.
I'm guessing with a username like yours , you're not a Hibby?
West 'am? The Spurs ? Leyton Orient ?

No, I'm not saying who my team are. Let's put it this way, they are no way as glamorous as Leyton bloody Orient!
Thanks for the promo record flyer, now safely tucked away in the memorabilia box. Yes, I did enjoy the book very much.
And you are a dirty bastard !

With sweet F all happening around our favourite band, I've just read this again, and have to admit I enjoyed the non-Pogues parts a bit more second time round. However, I do prefer the author's first effort "The Best Night Out In Town" to this one. Revisiting some of the gigs (some I actually went to) is much better in books like these, as opposed to shite reviews in newspapers and music mags. Still no hard copy to my knowledge, which is a pity, as the hardback for the first book is a real cracker. First book wins, hands down!
