There’s also a band from here in Chicago called The Tossers who do the faux Pogues thing pretty well.

Hey! I grew up with\* those…uh…polite and well-mannered young men. Right, that’s it. 😃

And they opened for the Pogues on St. Paddy’s Day! Local boys done good and all that. Can’t believe I forgot to mention them. Sorry, Duggins!

\*I was going to say “went to school with”, but if I remember right, there was a whole lot of not-going-to-school with that crowd!
