What is a pogues concert like? Crazy and rowdy? Calm and lounge-like? A little of both?

I checked online and it looks like they’re playing at the Orpheum. This is a theater with seats (and a very nice venue), so it shouldn’t be crazy at all. I saw them recently at the Fillmore in SF, and I watched from the balcony, where everything was quite mellow – lounge-like, as you say. Down below (there it’s all standing), there was dancing but honestly nothing crazy. A lot of their fans are not super young anymore and don’t seem to want to break any bones.

AND, it was an amazing concert and I would highly recommend it. Shane looks like a mess and is totally unintelligible when he speaks, but his singing voice is as lovely as ever, the band sounds fantastic, and he’s really a hoot to watch. It will definitely not be out of control at the Orpheum, and I highly recommend it!
