Tickets for Birmingham around £51.00 face value

Thats probs £60 at brixton academy - which tracks with how much it costs for gigs there these days - think im out. Good info though, very useful 👍 Had pencilled in a plan to do the Bermondsey beer mile that saturday with some mates, and it could be ambitious to tack on a Pogues gig at the end of it, i might not be able to do both!

Do you think venues go out and book acts, rather than the other way around?

The Pogues gig interests me, in that when i saw them the last few times they'd play at least half the gig with no Shane anyways, and they didnt really miss him that much. The guests could be interesting! But it'll almost certainly cost far, far too much and i wouldnt want to pay more than about thirty quid.

 

I dont want to say No Shane, no party, but . . . 

 

The last couple of times I saw them it was without Shane, still a great night but not the same.

 

I also saw Shane with The Popes around the same time. A half empty Liverpool Uni, came on late, got kicked off cos of the curfew, said they'd be back... reader, they never came back.

Seems odd there's no Cait in the lineup - sure she was touring with Spider in the states recently.

I’ve seen The Popes without Shane (surely their raison d'être?), supporting The Stranglers

She recently covered Jesse Malin's song about Shane, it's a thing of beauty.

The Pogues in 2024

 

no shane, no phil chevron, no cait (and no darryl hunt), no andrew rankin, no terry woods. 
 

pretty slim pickings left. Spider, Jem, and James. Do they really need to do this?

Probably not, but R, S & T L in full? With even just a few of them? Sounds like a good night.

If you accept it for what it is, you can’t deny them making a few bob

Hmmm, we've been round this loads. I sort of think you can. It's over, it's in the past, live with the memories of when they were a young, chaotic vibrant, life affirming force. It's all too reminiscent of the Tyson fight last weekend.

 

But I know we're not going to agree on this, all been here too many times.

I kinda agree, but I think that musicians should be able to play their old stuff, as long as it’s not trying to be something it isn’t.
The billing should reflect it - so I think it should be ‘Spider, James and Jem playing ‘Rum, Sodomy …etc’ 

Of course, those kind of decisions possibly lead to smaller venues but so be it.
Ditto Brian & Roger calling themselves Queen
