Oasis and the pogues were my 2 favourite bands growing up.

First saw the pogues live in the late 90s, and just loved going to see them, and Shane and the popes regularly afterwards (he'd some good songs with the popes too).

An absolute legend and one of the most talented song writers ever

Gutted I missed them on Saturday night, but my plans changed.
 
I saw them in London about 6 years ago or so and they were superb (plus I got 6 free tickets so that made it even better).

Last year in RDS was brilliant. Shane sounded like the old Shane again. Pogues always put on a great show though, regardless of the state of Shane LOL
