I figured a thread on this show would be helpful so when word of the ticket sale date gets out, we can find a place for it. No presale passwords, however! :p
Pogues show...
I spent part of my savings to go from Bolivia to Brazil to see the Pixies and I am planning to do the same (spend most of them) now and fly from South America to DC to see the Pogues.
Just been decided in the last half hour….I have my own company as does my mate so we're having a joint company christmas party at the Pogues show in Dub on 23rd….Get drunk, see the great one and get to write it all off!!!!!! :)
I might even break my $20 rule and pay $25 for this show.
bummer the show isn't during the christmas season so we could hear "fairytale of new york".
NYC tickets are upwards of $50 a piece…
fuck.
fuck.
Pogues in NYC on St. Patty's Day is for sure a $100.00 ticket………….that's before the scalpers get a hold of them……..anything you can get ahold of for less than that, buy it now!
Wrong
3/16 $50
3/17 $60
3/18 $50
May have to leave this show to the gentry.

>>> What I meant was that I'd pay $ 100.00 for a ticket considering the venue and the city and the holiday….hop on the ticks now before the scalpers get 'em……they'll be way over 100 clams when it sells out….
Any idea when tix go on sale. I was told tomorrow (12/1) but was also told on Saturday (12/3). Tickets.com doesn't have any info yet and you think they would if tix went on sale tomorrow or two days from now.

I hope the DC show sells out fast so that the Pogues might consider adding another show for Thursday, 9 March. I mean if Shane & The Popes can sell out the 9:30 Club, the Pogues selling the club out will be a sure thing.
I'm sure it will sell out pretty fast but hopefully not fast enough so I don't get tickets. How fast did the Shane and The Popes show sell out?
I think Shane & The Popes sold out the night of the show. It was the last night of their tour in the USA and it was also on a Friday. But he has played at the club a few times, and each time I think they sold out. It would be great though if the Pogues would add a second show at the club! I can't imagine all eight of the Pogues (maybe nine if Cait shows up) on the 9:30 stage! Shane alone gets the crowd going. Spider is usually the designated MC of Pogues shows and he and Shane have great chemistry on stage. You are pretty much guaranteed Fairytale of New York and Repeal of the Licensing Laws.
So… anyone know the best way to ensure we get tickets? Do I camp somewhere?

Why do people hope that shows sell out?
I mean, who wants to be crushed up against an overcrowded drunken throng of drunken faux Irish dudes?
Personally, I always wish for half to three quarter filled shows that enable one to find good sightlines and room enough to stretch ones legs.
It's been 24+ hours that the NYC tickets have been on sale, and none of the three shows there have sold out. I wouldn't worry about camping out for tickets.
