An extremely sweaty concert, this; sold out and packed to the gills with drunken Irishmen and muscular rockabilly types, up for slamdancing to the 2 dreadful support acts. Unsurprisingly, the bar was impossible to get to! The Pogues were shambolic, raucous, a bit thin on sound and static onstage, but enjoyable, with wild Irish jigs aplenty in a long fiddly-diddly singalong set. Got a set-list; God knows how!
That was my first Pogues gig at 15 years old. I knew what job I wanted from that day on, and went on and did my best at that job :) When I win the lottory I will come back and try to buy that set list off ya :) <3
