Comments & Reviews:

Nov 30, 2023

I saw The Pogues three times in New York. I think it was at their Palladium show that House of Love opened for them. Joe Strummer was with them the last time. The first time I saw them Luka Bloom opened. Around that time, he did a set at Continental Divide, an intimate little East Village bar on 3rd & St Marks. Really atmospheric. I think he opened with "Dreams In America." Wow!
