After taking anniversary shows across the UK and North America, original members James Fearnley, Jem Finer and Spider Stacy are returning to the road for dates in Europe, the UK and Ireland. They’ll be joined by special guest vocalists and musicians, drawing on a new generation of Irish artists who are exploring and reshaping traditional music.

The Pogues’ Greatest Hits Tour comes to Newcastle
For Newcastle fans, the set promises a trip through The Pogues’ best-known songs. Fairytale of New York, Dirty Old Town, A Pair of Brown Eyes, Rainy Night in Soho and If I Should Fall From Grace With God are among the tracks highlighted in the tour announcement. It’s a catalogue that moves between rowdy singalongs, sharp storytelling and songs of loss and longing.
Rather than a straight recreation of the band’s earlier shows, this run brings the original members together with guest performers. The announcement has not named the complete line-up for the Newcastle date, so keep an eye on official channels for further details on the singers and musicians joining them.
