The Pogues on Saturday Night Live

[Grievous Angel]

Also Dennis Miller led off the SNL news segment after the first Pogues song by giving a shout-out to the Pogues, adding, "Then again, I've always been a lyrics man." (a reference to Shane's slightly unintelligible singing)

Does anybody know if The Saturday Night Live performance of The Pogues "Body of an American" (1990, I think, with Rob Lowe hosting) is available anywhere for purchase?

Thanks

I was looking for that for quite a while. It was on Myspace Video TV or whatever it is called, along with "White City" from the same show. It is downloadable on bit-torrent, but I can't find it on Youtube or somewhere else anymore.

I have it on VHS video tape from when I taped it in 1990. It's 19 years old now...I can't imagine how crappy the picture and sound will be now.

The "Body of an American"-Video was on there as well, but was sadly removed after a while. It was great. I read that the band played "Battle of Brisbane" as well, but never saw a video of it, don't know.

Yes, it is widely reported that we also played "Battle of Brisbane" but in fact we did not.

Has anyone ever seen the Saturday Night Live performance of "Body of an American" online? I'm a longtime fan of The Pogues based in Tucson, AZ trying to track it down. Thanks for any help.
