SHOWTIMES UK/IRL 2010

[Brian Boru]

Phillip,How come on the showtimes thread you said The Pogues would be on stage at 8pm when you actually came on at 9:30ish?.This resulted in us coming out of a pub which was £1.50 a pint to having to drink the foul overpriced rubbish in the academy serves for nearly 2 hours. Bang out of order!.

No-one, least of all Philip, was making you drink the 'foul overpriced rubbish'! You could have bought the bottled stuff (admittedly still overpriced) or held back on the drink till the show was over.

Brian pretty much summed up what I wanted to say to Paddy, although admittedly I might've been less polite.

Although I do think that some people really take having direct contact with a band member for granted. Philip doesn't have to post here at all, nevermind let us know about gigs, stage times and other Pogues related stuff.

BOO HOO!! I went to a Pogues gig and they were late/the singer was drunk...etcetcblahblahblah....SHUT UUUUPPP!!!
Honest, i'm sick of hearing it!
AAh, that's better..

BIRMINGHAM tonight

Sparrow onstage 7.15
Pogues expected 8.15
Curfew 10pm

Please note: those of you who have asked to attend an Aftershow, there won't be any tonight. The venue's curfew is enforced because a "disco" takes over the club after we leave the stage. However, you are all, of course and as always, invited to the party in Terry Woods's room later.

Conditions here in Brum are pretty bad, we've had a rite load of snow this morning, even the main roads are not to clever, will the gig go ahead mr C or is it to early say ?

REMEMBER PHILADELPHIA!!!!!!!!!!!

[RoddyRuddy]

Good luck to band and crew tonight.If the show does go on tonight break a leg. To the many fans that can make it to the gig, enjoy.

"Remember Philadelphia
When the world was young and warm
So in love and living for
Everything new
But I know Philadelphia
The winter wind will slowly take
Your heart and soul until it makes
Nothing of you

And I would lay your body down and rock your tears away
But it’s much too late for now to be like yesterday
And the time is running out and we still have to say
Goodbye"


Really hope this tour is not the Goodbye.

I tip my hat to you.

Ah, can we take from that then that Terry, as 'senior' band member, has the penthouse suite?

Not a criticism, just an observation, i had visions of the 02 Management pulling the plug through FONY

[old barney greyheron]

Why do they have these curfews? Is it because of local residents (which I can understand)..or just some local council rule?
Last week watching bfch, they didn't start till 10.30pm...finished about 1am...that's more like it!
