Saw him lead the Pogues way back in 1991. He was totally incoherent but I still loved the show. Few months later I got to see them again, this time in Toronto and in between they had booted him. Joe Strummer was fronting. Joe and the Pogues doing London Calling was unbelievable.

ReplyDeleteThat must have been a great concert with the Pogues and Joe Strummer. Who would have guessed that Shane would outlive Strummer?
