I don't understand why some wikipedia members try to foretell the future..

I was speaking to one of the Popes on Friday and he said that Shane is set to get back together with them (and will be leaving the Pogues this year).

Wow you met the Pope? So what was your business in Rome?

That's odd the way you put that, TOSCS -- seeing how this is the Pogues forum, and the part you through in there at the end would be of the most interest to most of us. So which Pope was it? Or are you just making it up?

Just there for the craic, as they say. BibleCodeSundays were playing in the Vatican.

Mmm. Shane leaving The Pogues who are currently on a high, making big bucks selling out large venues all over the world to huge critical acclaim...to re-join The Popes who don't seem to know who their members are and currently play pub-sized venues in London?! I don't think so, do you?

A bit of both for Shane, perhaps?

I wouldn't complain.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't complain either. I loved Shane & The Popes at their best. Things just went really downhill toward the end, with Shane and the band both in a dreadful state and I'd hate to see that happen again.

Shane is on fine form with The Pogues right now, and seems really happy with the way things are going. He and the band are good for each other.

If he wanted to do some solo stuff again what about getting a brand new band together?
