London Aftershow party - Shane in Jamm

**Tue Oct 14, 2008 11:01 am**

There will be an official Pogues afterparty after the Brixton Academy gig on the 19th December 2008 happening at Jamm in Brixton. Shane Macgowan will be doing a DJ set and the Popes will be playing with a guest appearance from Shane on some songs. The tickets are available http://www.ticketweb.co.uk/user?query=s ... es&x=0&y=0

With regards to this Pogues aftershow party in Brixton, it has nothing to do with the band or management. It is possible Shane may have been approached about it but as any fool knows there's a big difference between asking and getting. Save your money.

On the Jamm site they promise: "The Pogues are heading a short stumble down the road to JAMM to continue the party...", calling the party (as well as ticketweb.co.uk, visitlondon.com and other sites do) "The Pogues OFFICIAL After Party". If neither the band nor the management have anything to do with the event shouldn’t the organizers be a bit more careful with using the name of the band when luring fans to their party? Did the band’s official representatives contact the organizers or promoters? For the moment, their promo is much more widespread than the band’s "save your money" words of wisdom...

In fairness, no enterprise which makes the mistake of picturing the Pogues taking a "short stumble" down the road after a two hour show is ever going to have the ring of authenticity now, is it? That's not to say a fabulous time will not be had by all those who do attend, especially if it adequately fulfils a need to keep the party going. You won't find me within a short hop away, much less a short stumble.

Me neither, sounds like hell. For the record it's just not worth our managements time chasing stuff like this. Shane has been approached so it does have a certain validity but as i mentioned before whether or not he turns up is anyones guess and certainly should not be taken as a given. I only have to wave a copy of Brokeback Mountain (or The Passion of the Christ) in his face and he'll be in my fucking hotel room for the next 15 hours watching it on a loop..

Now that has the ring of authenticity!

Well this time the risk was totally worth it (The Jamm). Even though I wouldn´t have had anything else to do anyway..

Usual story - you give girl a thrash, she begins to sulk, you begin to wank. Luckily it doesnt last for too long, either she quits sulking or you find another lass.. Do not worry for Paul. He is Ok now :wink:
