Here's a recent clip of The Popes performing the old Rod Stewart number 'In A Broken Dream'. The female vocalist is Jo O'Meara from the defunct band S Club 7.

Stars To Honour Maccoll With Charity Gig

Rockers including SHANE MACGOWAN, BILLY BRAGG, and JOHNNY MARR are set to mark tragic singer KIRSTY MACCOLL's birthday with a concert in aid of her charity fund.

The Fairytale of New York vocalist died in 2000 after she was struck by a speedboat off the coast of Mexico during a holiday.

MACColl would have turned 51 on 10 October (10) - and a group of her friends and former collaborators are to honour the date with a charity concert in London.

Marr, who worked with MACColl when he was in The Smiths, Bragg - whose song A New England was covered by MACColl - and The Pogues frontman MACGowan will be joined at the event by a host of other stars including David Gray, Ellie Goulding, Kim Wilde, and Amy MACDonald.

All performers will cover one of MACColl's songs during the concert.

The show, at the U.K. capital's O2 Shepherds Bush Empire, will raise money for the Music Fund for Cuba, a charity set up in MACColl's honour which aims to encourage the development of the performing arts on the Caribbean island.

paul,

thanks a million, that's brilliant stuff! I really like Jem's mix of different styles to always create something absolutely groovy. If you get my drift.

As the umpteenth rehash/ brew of the 'Loveparade' is about to take place in Duisburg tomorrow (more or less right in front of my door...I can see dozens of port-a-potties from my balcony...) I'm very happy to be able to go to the Erfurt medieval (times?) festival on Saturday and Sunday.
Am looking forward to see In Extremo and particulary Fiddler's Green, the methinks best-known irish folk (rock/punk) band in Germany.

one can detect a charming naiveté, eh? anyways, it's great party music, that's for sure!

Barroom and Conor (and everyone else of course!), here is a link to another side project of Jem Finer's.

There are a few really cool songs here.

conor, here's pachinko by dm bob and country jem. it sounds like pachinko by the pogues...

that dm bob and country jem track sounds like ..."Once upon a time" from Waiting for herb.

it's a pity the Pogues can't throw together an album, considering how much they've been touring.

i'm gonna sound like an old fashioned record company lackey but all you need is

new versions of old irish songs,
1 or 2 instramentals,
get andrew, terry, spider, phil to write and sing a few tracks. and of course a handful of songs by shane patricio.

shane was well able to reuse material from pogues demo's as Popes tracks, he can still come up with something like Mama Lou and he's well able to make appearances on every tom, dick and harry's albums, why not his own? i think terry woods and cait hold the key.

their a&r man said " i don't hear a single...

I think they enter the Autobahn in Dortmund where my eldest daughter lives. They did not book a table because only few tables are booked out in that area.

Beer counts of course



Another subject: I am just reading the new Ozzy Osbourne boigraphy and I can't stop laughing. His sort of humour is just prizeless.

Ingrid,
i'll bring beer which is of course made from cereals. my tribute and I hope it counts!
my favourite breakfast cereals, btw.
where are your daughters heading? or where do they enter the autobahn? did they make a reservation for a table?

17.07.2010 - 15:10


     Ingrid (Admin Team)
 
Barroom, you have forgotten to mention that the intention of the Autobahn thing is to have the largest breakfast table ever. So don't forget your cereals

2 of my 3 daughters are going, too.

Heyho, dear folks!

Got a question: as I'm the proud obtainer of about 15 Pogues/ Shane t-shirts I'm wondering what would be the best way to preserve em for the next generations. How do the mad collectors do it? Of course they should be wearable from time to time, on very special occasions. I'll be known by my Pogues 92 shirt when in Münster on the 31st of July, btw.
But the rest of year, what would be the best treatment for my mighty fine garments?


On another note, due to the "Kulturhauptstadt 2010" thingy, the autobahn (highway) from Duisburg to Dortmund (60 km) will be open for cyclists and pedestrians (and no cars, of course...) and they want to create the longest table there ever was. Hope they got the longest counter as well...

Methinks it's the first time since the oil crisis in 1973 (when there was a "No cars this Sunday" program) that you're allowed to cycle on the highway. A million people are expected, guess we'll show up, cycle a few miles and then go to the lake.
You wonder 'what's that got to do with Shane?'. Hell, I sure don't know.

Something at least a wee bit related to Shane: Found out that the "DM" in DM Bob & Country Jem" stands for "Deutsch Mark" or "Deutschmeister", cos Bob moved from Luhisianna to Hamburg in 1991 or so and he's one fuckin hell of a fuckin gentleman! At least e-mail wise...
Will have to meet him asap.

Not bad Noel, not bad. However I hear that there's a band called The Spirits who do a far better version of that song...
