A Guy Called Matt Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 With the Pogues doing a special gig on 14th June do you think that makes the chances of a Glasto appearance likely? Never seen the live but have heard great things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinhead Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Have never seen them live anywhere near as much as I should have. Last time was Victoria Park, Hackney I think some years ago for one of the Madstock gigs. Would be well up for a Glasto appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Amazing the man is still alive and playing gigs. Yes please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vieuphoria Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I'd love to see them on the Pyramid somewhere. How likely is it for them to play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence01 Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 They are awesome live, it would make my Glastonbury if they played. Hopefully headlining one of the stages Friday or Saturday night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balti-pie Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Please! I've seen em four times, and each has been bloody excellent. Even if Shane is umm . . . 'off form' the band are incredibly tight. I'd love to see em headlining the Avalon or the Park, or an afternoon slot on the pyramid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawdusty surfer Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 They are absolutely cracking live and would go down a treat at Glastonbury. Yes please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Guy Called Matt Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Seems the great things I have heard are very true judging by the comments so far. I shall add them to my list of ""I really hope they play Glastonbury this year"". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratpat Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Have seen them a few years ago, when Phil Chevron was still with them on guitar and it was a massive blast, singing, drinking and enjoying them from the first to the last second, but as he passed away last year I'm not too sure how good they sound now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruwise Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I saw them last year and they were great. Shane wasn't as bad as I expected either. I feared the worst when I saw him come out on stage but once he started singing all was well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruwise Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 No he walked but it was the kind of slow shuffle that you'd expect of an octogenarian though he sang Fairytale Of New York absolutely word and note perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I've not seen them for years, the last couple of times where when Shane was out the band, so it would be very good to see them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
