The dying days... its always comes in waves and it will be more and more as these people who created the events of the 60's, 70's and now the 80's come to the end of their days.

I wasn't a huge fan of the Pogues but damn they had a singularity about them. Nothing compares to their sound and the lyrics, especially in a punk setting.
