02 November 2009 The Pogues announce seventh annual Christmas tour
As much a part of Christmas as mince pies and hangovers, The Pogues return for more dates in December 2009. For the previous seven years now the band have celebrated the season by bringing their unique mix of traditional Irish folk, punk and classic songwriting to halls around the country. The Pogues, who have just completed a US tour, will see out the decade with such classics as ‘Streams of Whiskey’, ‘Sally MacLennane’, ‘A Rainy Night In Soho’ and of course, everybody’s favourite Christmas song ‘A Fairytale of New York’ alongside many more.
Support on all shows comes from William Elliott Whitmore - www.williamelliottwhitmore.com
