The Pogues coming to "Washington D.C."

[EricV]

I'm not sure what I read or where that led me to believe that the second show would be the 10th and not the 8th. But the 8th is my birthday, and if I must go to a Pogues show on such a great occasion, then I might as well bring my daughter to teh show, as she was born on that date as well! (btw... any coaching on where to stand with an 8 year old at teh 9:30 Club will be appreciated... and yes, I've been to plenty of shows and have no intention of taking her onto the main floor in front of the stage...cheers!)

I'd probably go up to the balcony if I had an 8 year old in tow. At the Pogues show you always get the stupid frat boys pretending to be all drunk and Irish and stuff....it's really quite pathetic.

I don't see it on there now, but did see it when they were first announced on there.  Could have been wrong date on there, but it was a Sunday and Monday in DC, then a Wednesday in Baltimore.

That would just make sense.

I guess they are waiting to see how many people sign up for the web list thingy. Or maybe the sales in Bmore are lower and they want to even things out.

the second show was definitely announced as being on monday the 10th.   when i asked seth about onsale for the second show, he didn't correct me about it being on monday night - you'd think he would if i was wrong.  other than that, i'm too lazy (and on vacation in hawaii   ) to find confirmation for ya.

At a Popes show several years ago, Shane was drinking a clear liquid throughout the show from a big pint glass. It looked like water. After the show, as the roadies were breaking down the stage, I asked one to hand me the glass (which I took home as my one, truly bizarre Shane McGowan souvenir). Shane hadn't been drinking water, but straight gin. He probably gulped two or three of these, in addition to swilling from a big bottle of wine. I doubt he was pretending to be drunk that night.
 
 I expect as much from Shane this March. Though I got shut out of the first show, I hope I can grab tickets to the second.

 Pollstar has another show listed on the 8th.
 Possible that the Pogues would play a late show. But much more likely means the second show will be on the 10th.
 Damn! Some of us have to work with children on Tuesday mornings!

Its the 10th. Good luck getting tickets everyone. I think I'll stick with the 9th. Cheers!

Where is it said it's the 10th? I am not doubting, I just want to be sure when I make various travel plans tomorrow.
