And a fine top hat it is sir, now bring me some potatoes and whiskey.

Speaking of drunken Irishmen, I'm going to see the Pogues in just over two weeks. I can't wait. They're one of my all-time favorite bands.
The Pogues are fan-fooking-tastic man!
Shane MacGowan is one of the most underrated frontmen there is. There are not many his equal when it comes to lyrical prowess, and his vocals are at times, astonishing.
A true legend of music!
I love his lyrics and his vocal style. Totally original. I'm really looking forward to the show, but I'm a bit apprehensive about which Shane MacGowan is going to show up, the charismatic, albeit drunken, frontman or the slobbering, stumbling wreck who mumbles his way through half-forgotten songs. Either way it should be fun.
