ONE love, blood, life
Okay, so I was definitely behind the times on this whole Pogues thing because the group is fantastic. Thank God for digital cable and the Sundance Channel showing "If I Should Fall From Grace With God," the Shane MacGowan documentary (completely interesting and heartbreaking if you haven't had a chance to check it out).
Anyway, saw this on NME.com today. Lucky ducks living in the UK and Ireland, you get a Pogues reunion tour!!!
