Shane McGowan is such an ugly guy. I love The Pogues. <3
I didn't know they were touring, though. :|

Haha, yes shane is definitely something alright. But he is adorable in a drunken old stumbly incoherent feeble man sort of way (and the sad part is that he is only like 48). Actually he's doing a lot better than he has been in recent years.

Yeah, they've been doing shows in Europe for the past few years, but just this year started a US tour. They played a handful of shows back east in March, i saw themfor two nights in NY, one on St Paddy's Day. This fall they are touring the west coast (san fran, la, vegas). If you can manage to find tickets somewhere, you should go. I mean who knows how much longer shane will even live!
