Slán agus beannacht, Shane MacGowan. The great Irish punk poet of the gutter has shuffled off this mortal coil.

May the wind that blows from haunted graves
Never bring you misery
May the angels bright
Watch you tonight
And keep you while you sleep.
...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

Hardly surprising considering his long-term poor health but still very sad news. A true character and poet. The Pogues were not really my thing but saw them many times at festivals during the 1980s and you just couldnt help getting caught up in their energy and excitement. RIP Shane.

Man, I really loved that show as a kid. I should try and watch an episode or two again, I seem to remember reading they were ripe with hidden themes.

RIP to a very creative mind.

Former Detroit Tigers reliever Willie Hernández passed away on November 20, at age 69. I remember his spectacular 1984 season, becoming only the third pitcher in history to win MVP, Cy Young, and World Series honors in the same season (McClain and Koufax were the other two). I still remember his brief stint with the Phillies in 1983. RIP.

^ he was 20 years older than the other DT guys, one of the reasons he wasn‘t a good match. But he was a great singer, and I still really like the album.

Wow, that seems older than I would have thought for a band of it's age. He was almost 40 when they did their first album. I always thought they were a bunch of Music Academy guys in their early 20's.
72, still a young age to go.

RIP
