poguetry in brixton
Went to see the Pogues last night. It was a great night with a lively crowd. Never would have thought Pogues fans would have been into drinking so much ;-)
We were thinking about Babyshambles as we arrived, but their singer is even more dysfunctional than Shane, and about Bob Dylan, but Shane's voice is in better shape than Bob's at the moment. They played an hour and a half of classics, including 'Tuesday Morning' during one of Shane's several breaks from the stage. And, of course, Cait duetted with Shane on 'Fairytale of New York' during the final encore. The loudest participation moment was when Shane said he could have been someone and about 5,000 people yelled back at him 'Well so could anyone!' Crowd participation was loud - I don't think I could hear Cait at all during 'I'm a man you don't meet every day'
I also emptied my pockets into the Justice for Kirsty bucket while I was there.
