The Medusa Fora

I should mention it is my wife's birthday today and I think the appropriate gift is to buy her husband a Guinness if you spot us.

Many happies to her! I shall not spot you (unless I finally get those Superman powers I used to ask Santa for), but shall raise a glass from a distance, while being quietly yet deeply jealous of all you Pogues fans on the other side of the broad Atlantic.

Happy happy Candace!

Indeed! Happy happy CPoguesFan!

The Pogues in Chicago on one's birthday is indeed a memorable event! One of my favorites!
Happy Birthday Candace!

Coincidentally, it's my wife's birthday today too. However, the good husband award will have to go to Clash, as I've left Mrs. RJR at home. But, as I'm bringing my daughter, I'll settle for the "okay dad" prize.

Often times the best thing I can get for the Lovely Mrs. DzM is me being out of the house for a day or two.

Yeah, there was definitely a "don't-let-the-door-hit-you-in-the-ass" vibe as we left this morning.

It is a special one indeed, I thought a night with The Pogues would make her forget she turned 40 today (I married 8 years beneath just look young for my age )

Good luck tonight, boys!!!!

Did anyone get the setlist from this show? Even just posting all the songs would be nice. I remember most of it, but not all.

The show has remained unchanged throughout this tour. I suppose I should add "so far", lest I be found guilty of tempting fate.

Thanks Philip, and shortly after posting it, I found it in the setlist section... didn't think to look their first. Thanks again for the great tunes, the great evening out, this time with my sis and friends and thanks for staying in touch like this with Pogues fans. I'm thinking next time I see you folks it will be in Dublin around Christmas.

Yes, well, it won't be this Christmas, so Merry Christmas in advance.

I'm headed over there in May this year anyway... Just sayin' next time I hope to see you, i'm looking at an Ireland show instead of here in the US.
