Mic Check: The Pogues

See the full interview here.

“Our audiences are all pretty much the same wherever we go. They're really sort of up for it, and have a good time. Between, let's say, a Boston crowd and a Los Angeles crowd, there's not really an awful lot of difference. Generally speaking, Pogues fans are Pogues fans the world over...and they're wild in the sack!”



SEE IT: The Pogues play the Roseland Theater on Sunday, Oct. 11, with Swingin' Utters. 9 pm. Sold out. 21+.
