Boogaloo

Post Wed Aug 24, 2005 8:57 pm

Apparently one of Shanes' favourite boozers in North London (?) , seem to remember someone telling me there was a Pogues connection to this bar - anyone know what?
Haven't been up there yet but have just moved round the corner so any comments welcome from anyone who's been.

A couple of friends of mine met Shane in there the night I saw him with the popes on Paddy’s day, according to her he was drinking cups of coffee? :shock: and shes only new to living in the country so she went ‘exploring’ one night in North London, what a lucky surprise to have happen to you on your first pub crawl in London.

God Yes!

Have you been up there yet Simon?

I'm hoping to catch a gig up there perhaps.

I haven't been there (too far away), but I know people who go regularly. Good pub, good jukebox, and always the chance of bumping into Shane. :)

With these being recent photos, I think Mr MacGowan looks pretty damn good compared to some I've seen. Impressed!

Last time Shane played Paddys Day with Popes he did a secret gig at the Boogaloo right beforehand, no Popes but with Pete Doherty, Bap Kennedy and a couple of others under the name Mother Ireland's Darling Sons. They played Lonesome Highway, Cupid and Dirty Old Town. The gig was amazing ... kate Moss behind the bar!

Absolutely -- His album, Seize the Day, is very well produced. He would be great performing a solo, acoustic set or otherwise.

I'll let you know how I get on, right! It's in 2 weeks.

I have to choose do I want a new pair of shoes and a skirt or do I want a night out at his gig. I mean I spend at least £60 on a average night so...... I am still making up my mind.

Go see Damo. 8)

He's brilliant. I think so. Shane thinks so.

I also fancy Damo a bit, though I can't speak for Shane.
