... aged 65. Saw them once, back in 1987, when Shane and the band were on top of their game...just! Hope he's at peace now.

Quo headlined and The Pogues were on the bill that day too. As you said top of their game back then and their immortal Fairytale of New York went to #2 that Christmas. Was there in Cork that day. Rest in Peace, Shane MacGowan. Brilliant songwriter.

Yep, that was the Siamsa Cois Laoi in Cork, the last one that was held. Great double-header of a weekend. U2 played a great gig the previous night and I stayed on to see Quo the next day. Can't remember the order of appearance on the Sunday. Were The Pogues on immediately before Quo?
