MrowsterOK I'll admit I've a soft spot for #Shaboozey and those catchy western outlaw gang-chorus anthems of his. But what's with all the verses about endless liquor-swilling nites & daze? It's almost like some weird #countrypop reboot of mid-80s #DrunkRock ala #Pogues or #Replacements - or, yep, #TexAndTheHorseheads. Should he eventually tilt toward writing bangin' peons to mainlining H, don't say I didn't warn ya.

Séamus McGuireThe first single from “20th Century Paddy”, a #ShaneMacGown tribute album, is out. It’s the #BruceSpringsteen cover of “A Rainy Night in SoHo.” Not bad, but I prefer the original #Pogues
version. I suspect that’s how I’ll feel about the whole record. Still, I look forward to listening to it.
I see #TomWaits is also contributing. Could it be any song but “Hells Ditch”?

Colin RowatHe auditioned twice, he said. The second time, Mr. MacGowan and Mr. Finer told him that he would be allowed only two drums, a snare and a floor tom, and that he would have to stand when playing them. “No cymbals,” he recalled them telling him, “but you can have a saucepan lid.”
