Whatever they choose to play is fine with me. They are pretty much all great tunes. Although i wouldn't shed a tear if Fiesta was left off the list. :D

...Come to think of it, does anyone like Fiesta?

It´s not among my ten favourite Pogues songs, but it´s not too bad either. I like it, especially live.

And if you´d listen to this bloody awful German version just once, I´m sure you´d appreciate the original a lot more ... :D :oops:

"Fiesta" is well known by fans who don't frequent websites and probably don't even know who the song is BY until they hear it at a Pogues concert. It's one of those annoyingly ubiquitous tunes, which is of course what attracted us to it/made us despise it in the first place. The only way to exorcise it was to make it OURS, I tell you, ALL OURS! :twisted:

So Fiesta is the price we pay for Straight to Hell, basically.

Fair enough.
