Music Monday – “We watched our friends grow up together/And we saw them as they fell/Some of them fell into Heaven/Some of them fell into Hell” (RIP Shane MacGowan: 1957-2023)

RIP to the only performer that ever scared the shit out of me when he appeared on SNL in the early to mid 1990’s.  And what a performer he was!

“A Rainy Night in Soho” – The Pogues

And at this time of year, I have to mention the greatest Christmas song of all-time…

“Fairytale of New York” – The Pogues

A funny Shane MacGowan story…

One of the Pogues’ earliest recorded performances…
