No,they're only doing 9 US shows.They did 2 in DC,1 in Atlantic city,and they're doing 2 in Boston and 4 in New York.

Seeing the Pogues now would kill them for me, I really think that Shanes voice has deteriorated. But if you say he was good, then excellent, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

But I wouldn't want to risk disappointment.

My friend got tickets to one of the NY shows, I wish I could go. :(

While his voice clearly isn't as good as it was in the old days,it's much better than it has been on his recent Popes stuff.

i seen them twice on their recent uk xmas tour, in manchester and in dublin. Seen them in dublin in 2001 also and seen shane and the popes in belfast twice. They still put on a fabulous show, and are still loving it themselves
