Pogues show...

[RHCP1978]

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.

Because with bands reuniting after (more or less) more than a decade, it is good to see a good audience response so that these bands keep doing it in the future and even record new albums.

Appears that the 3/17 show is sold out...

I still haven't decided on seeing the show here or in my hometown of Atlantic City or both!
 
 do ya think they'll still be $50 for these shows?
 
 with that kind of ticket price, I'll have nothing left for beer.
 
 I suppose only time will tell...
 I'll be on my computer saturday morning...adding to my debt filled credit cards yet again!
   :p
