"There is going to be a huge void on stage to not have Philip, there's been void since he died. Thousands Are Sailing is an indispensable song for us. To play that would be my way of saying goodbye to Philip. I couldn't come over for the funeral and I wasn't able to go to the testimonial gig in August so I'm due some grieving basically. That song was always a way maker for some transitions in my life. I'm so eager to be able to send Philip off by playing his song, that's what I want to do above anything else because The Pogues has been a family to me for many years.
