Here is some video the guy next to me took. He had never been to a Pogues show. I think he did a pretty good job!

Enjoy!

I wonder if Shane sustained any injuries from the falls at the LA show. Did he sit through most/all of this show?

After a stumble early in the show, Shane relinquished his preferred vertical disposition and used the stool that has, for the past 8 years, been a constant piece of stage furniture, though more commonly used by myself and Darryl.

Great to see that he bounced back. Looks like a day of rest on Sunday did him good. Watching the video, it is night and day compared to what saw and heard Saturday. The biggest difference is simply his voice, much more power to it.

Had tickets to see a Pogues show in L.A. 21 years ago, but could not make it. FINALLY, got to see them after a "planes, trains and automobiles" from Virginia got me there. Absolutely fantastic to see that show. I was a couple people behind "Kathleen with a K" and had an absolute blast. Ned was probably the best song to see after all these years.

Yes, well, I must say I'm delighted by the return of "Ned" also.


Yes, good to see both these in and hope they're retained at Brixton!

BTW, must say the live version of Star on the box set, with the long introduction, is brilliant. Don't know about it opening the set though. Streams now seems to have taken that spot by tradition, providing a great start to the show.

Nice to see Ned back in. Was trying to figure out if something was dropped for it, and as noted, the Greenland Whales were harpooned.

Bono mentioned Shane was at the U2 concert in Phoenix last night. :) Desert air should do him well. Bono dropped in a bit of Dirty Old Town during Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.

Did any other Pogues attend? Hmm...

Hope the band continue with Ned and Star into the UK tour - Have really missed these songs.

The thing I love about star of the county down is the way shane takes secondary vocal and some of the band take on anothers instrument - it just makes it feel like a jam - which i always think is so cool and only a thing real musicians can dare to do and carry it off.

If the Pogues would care to re-instate White City and the Parting Glass too that would be fine by me too !!!

There's a clip of 'Fiesta' shot in San Diego (19.10.2009). I laughed my arse of when I saw it. About 3 mins into the song, Shane does some lyrical improvisation.
