From what ive heaqrd The Tossers are much more in the spirit of the Pogues than the fucking Dropkick Murphy Flogging Mollys sound.
I do like Real MacKenzies a lot though,like Stiff Little Fingers.And blood or Whiskey are good in a Poguesy kind of way but .Nothing is the same yet

Why is everyone comparing bands like DKM and FM with the Pogues? They sound nothing like eachother. :roll: I also bet you've only heard a few songs, so you have no right the judge.

No way. I've heard lots of songs by The Pogues. Lots!

the murphys don't sound a whole lot like the pogues, but i don't see how you can truthfully say flogging molly don't.
