I downloaded my first Pogues CD the other day from Itunes. Good stuff. I had all the intentions of having a St. Patrick's Day celebration at my house, only to come to nothing.

I love that the Dropkick Murphys asked SM to sing "Good Rats" on one of their discs...it is hilarious. And fitting. And totally kickass.

Yes, was, great 
I agree he was a great singer/ songwriter.
I saw the Pogues 2 weeks ago in Boston. It was great, but I couldn't help but feel bad lookin' at Shane. Could not understand a word he said between songs, and he really looked like sh!te. He did not really seem to be there. I guess I expected that, but it was worse than I imagined. Kind of felt bad for the rest of the band too. In a way he upstaged them without really being all that great.
Still one of my all time favorite bands though, so it was great to see them. I guess it is just the realization that the will never put out any new material, least not as good as they have. |

I know what you mean. You could understand the lyrics, but not the between-song yapping. I wonder if it's really a matter of us knowing all the lyrics than him actually singing clearly.

saw shane and the pogues last st patty's in nyc and it was the opposite. i expected him to be a drunken mess but instead he was on top of his game. guess it's a crap shoot with him though.
either way - shane + pogues + beer = happiness.
