The Pogues announce Christmas show
It wouldn’t be Christmas without presents, mince pies, family arguments and The Pogues’ annual Christmas show.
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 15 Sep 2006
As such, Shane McGowan and co will take to the stage at the Point Depot in Dublin on December 21. Tickets for the show are €45.75 and go on sale on Friday 22 September. And if they don’t play ‘The Fairytale Of New York’, we’ll eat our Santa hat.

In the lobby, the queue for the men’s toilets is 50 yards long, and there is no queue for the women’s – definitely a Pogues gig. Mundy, fair dues, braves the challenge of supporting the unlikely returned heroes, and does very well too, getting the hall in form for the near-sold out gig at the Point. If it’s been over a decade since we’ve seen the Pogues play together, it doesn’t sound that way tonight.

*No artist is ever morbid. The artist can express everything.* - Oscar Wilde, preface to The Picture Of Dorian Gray (1891) *Life's a bitch, then you die. Black hell.* - Shane McGowan Hell's Ditch (1990).
1990-10-07 - REVIEW
Till now, Pogues' compliments have invariably centred on Shane MacGowan's singular songwriting. The group's erratic performances which could descend into some ramshackle acoustic heart of darkness meant the praise wasn't always extended to his fellows.
