I wish it could say Pogues instead of Popes , But whatever Shane chooses is cool.

It could work but he's gonna be on a tight schedule.

to be honest the more shows the better, whether with Pogues or Popes. Big Xmas and Paddy's Day shows with the Pogues, small intimate gigs with the Popes in between. Who can complain? If the Popes do come back, hopefully they will have had an overhaul after their year off.

It's a new record I want. :shock:

Below is copy of email sent out on FOS re Derry gig / Popes

"Dear Ingrid,

Shane asked me to forward this to you for the site:

Shane & The Popes - Derry - March 5th 2006.- GIG

Shane would like it known that he will NOT be playing this date, nor did he ever agree to it.

Thanks"

Well, that didn't take long.

There's still a writing process going on, but I think it's going to be another solo one. Maybe not with the Popes, necessarily, but I doubt it's the Pogues.

the popes are cheesey.

it would be great to see shane with a decent popes band again like in the mid to late nineties....i hope we get to hear all shane s solo stuff live again...i cant see the pogues playing donegal express anytime soon

**Sun Dec 11, 2005 1:36 am**

That would be great if true...from me point of view...he made brilliant stuff on his own(with Popes)

**Thu Dec 22, 2005 1:43 pm**

So what s the crack here...are the Popes no longer part of Shanes solo stuff? Have they been given the boot?
