BIRMINGHAM SETLIST - LOOK AWAY NOW!!!

[moose]

Brilliant brilliant gig. Shane was on top form and the rest of the boys were excellent, best he has been since the reunion.
A great night and meeting other Medusans was a real pleasure, a big hello to WWFC pogue, Wolves pogue, Soulfinger and son, Rum, A P davis and the Duke.
Even managed to get a photo of the lovely Victoria at the after show party.

.......Poor Paddy (Works On the Railway).......

F@#k!!!

Philip, you just have to play that instead of Waxies Dargle at Brixton on Sunday night. That was the song that first got me into the Pogues.

(If there was a begging emoticon, it would be displayed here)

Amen to that.

In fact how about playing both?

Or how about playing everything…? Knock off at 11ish as per normal for an hour or so then come back on and play the remaining songs in the catalogue. I’m not back at work till Tuesday afternoon so I’ve no rush to get back up north….

[IrishRover]

Oh yeah, the most important, HUNDRED THOUSAND THANKS to Shane and Derryl for soigning that peace of paper me mate brought with hem, thats one greatest Christmas present for me!

[jimmyw]

Please, please, please keep Kitty in the setlist for Manchester!

All the set lists have looked awesome so far - I seriously can't wait. Bringing 5 virgin Poguers with me too.

[soulfinger]

Highlights for me were Young Ned - Terry's voice was the best for years, Thousands of Sailors - Phil on top form and The Auld Triangle - never thought it'd get done live again.
I think the boy's highlight was getting a big handful of fairytale snow.

.....Thousands of Sailors......

Ooo Errr! sounds like a Wayland Smithers' wet dream!

[jinglebloodyjangle]

Fantastic gig, I never thought Auld Triangle would be done. My mate caught one of trays and another threw Shane his lighter, only for it to be dropped and lost! Oh well, at least it's a cool story. No way you could have made that a better gig, although I could have smacked the guy next to me who shouted "Nice speedboat" during fairytale of new york. Wanker

Yeah, well spotted. There's a story behind it but it's not worth repeating.

How rarely is the Auld Triangle played then? (being fairly new to the pogues, only seen 'em twice...)

I've never heard it played and I've been a fan for about twenty years.

[philipchevron]

We stopped playing it some time in 1985. "Poor Paddy" survived into 1986 or so.

[imamanyoudontmeeteveryday]

[rumsodomyandthelash]
