The concert is, of course sold out, 1300 tickets.

Drammen is 45 min. from Oslo by train. Train app. every 30 minutes.

Union Scene is just 500 meter from the train station.


Me and some friends will be coming to the gig. We will probably go to Buddy Scene near Bragernes torg.

I have by the way no connection to Buddyscene.no.

But looks like buddyscene will have a Pogues-vorspiel.
Free entrance.

My first Pogues gig was in Oslo, back in the nineties, and at Sentrum Scene. I think I was 17 at the time, and had to borrow ID from an acquaintance. She was 29, and the door macho apologised profusely for having doubted my age, I smiled and skipped on in and had a lovely time. Fast-forward a few years and my daughter is born. I named her after the woman who lent me her ID (a fairly rare name it is too).

Morale of the story: Be very careful about who you borrow IDs from, the name might stick with you for the rest of your life! ;)

Have fun at the gig everyone!

We miss you too but I hope we´ll see you for Christmas. Looks like Dublin or London this year depending on the dates.

See you....

Tomorrow! The concert is tomorrow!
Surely I'm not going to be able to get any sleep tonight. I'll be up all night watching Pogues videos on youtube! :D

Haha, great story! :)
Well, the fella's (whose ID I might be borrowing) name isn't too shabby, luckily. ;)
I might actually be able to get into the pub all by myself, though, seeing how early we'll be going there. There's little or no chance of any bouncers or age limits above 18 years old that early in the day. At least I hope so. :P
And of course, the age limit for the concert is 18 years old.

Anyone going to the Moscow gig? I was there a few years ago, great place to visit,but a bit scary at night.I once queued up in Red Square believing i was about to see Lenin's tomb,when in fact i was in the queue for the Macdonalds which was next to the building where Lenin lies[he was good at that!]Forza YORK CITY and Volgagrad FC,the original tractor boys!
