Best effort by the Popes to carry this one through the end🏆 Still, I find it surprising that members of the band have hardly a clue to any of the lyrics. Weren’t these guys Pogues fans before they became the Popes or at least during that time.🤔
Yes it's terrible to see Shane like that. Hate to say this wasn't an isolated incident. Seen him shaky like that before in the past. Thank God he's got Vicky and surrounded by those who truly love him and his health. This particular appears to be cocaine sickness with severe dehydration. Glad that is all behind him now. Bless him for all the beauty he has given us all.❤
I see lots of comments about how wasted Shane is and how he couldn't get through the song properly...but now he's passed on, and none of that matters a damn. He was a big boy who could do what he wanted, if that's who he was then I loved him for it then and I love him for it now.
He sure had a fun life, wrote incredible songs relatable throughout the world. And Shane had plenty of trolls. Never met the guy I don't know who he is but I have a high regard for the music that Shane left behind. Thanks for the music Shane . They will be listening to him 500 years from now.
Sad to see Shane in this state, one of the most iconic singer songwriters of a generation. I first saw The Pogues in the early 80's. OK this video isn't The Pogues, but the is how we all know and love the man. The last time I saw Shane live was 2012 and he looked and sounded OK considering his demons and health. In that 20 years I must have seen them more than two dozen times, including when the late great Joe Stummer fronted the band and a stint by Spider Stacy, but The Pogues needed MaGowan.
It's at this point that you know that something more profound, more tragic and desperate is happening with the guy at the mic. He's gone way beyond having a good time and getting wasted with the band... There's lonely, sad drunkenness, and the guy so desperately needed someone, anyone to just say ...stop. 'Stop, Shane, and I'll help you.' Those words could have changed his life forever, but he never seemed to ever hear them. May we all learn something about alcoholism, Shane, and ourselves from watching this mans desperation in public that he lived for so many years. Rest in Peace dear beautiful Shane. We will miss you forever and a day.
Not his best performance, I'd have to agree. But I still like Shane's voice better than the guitarist's taking over (I forget his name) - mumbling, stumbling, humming, forgetting the words and all...
@@jacobfiil5918I absolutely agree..As I just said elsewhere here this band, knowing Shane's habits, should have been familiar enough with the songs to help him out more when he was trying and known the lyrics well enough to perform the songs after he had to leave.. I could have done better in that context just from being a singer and a fan of his writing .. these band members manage nothing but rattling out the notes.. I'm just nearly finished Richard Balls' biography of Shane.. In the light of that it's pretty amazing he even got on the stage over many of his years..I saw him and the Pogues during the late 80s and was never disappointed.. In any event the Pogues would have covered for him better than this..!
The band not knowing the word to If I Should Fall From Grace With God really was a surprise and a shock! I could've sung it way better than any of them...let me up there!! They did no better on any of the other songs either...imagine not knowing your own bands songs I side and out! Rubbish!
He had a nice comeback in the '00s en early '10s, having concerts again full of energy with The Pogues. Search for the concert in Paris in 2012 (Olympia), that was pretty all right.
@@Donderdrammels Nah he's very inconsistent, if I hear a recording of Shane MacGowan live and I don't see the year, I can immediately tell what 5 year period it was played. Same with pictures of him I did hear that concert and he sounded great, it really doesn't matter if he can sing anymore, as long as he has the energy to keep up with the music. I swear to god it's like he's 50% slower than everyone else, watch him in his current state at 2x the speed
Say what you want about Shane but %95 of the time he was totally professional on stage. He would intentionally wait for the encores to indulge in what have you….So the night before Shane bought some Dutch hash cakes but woke soo hungry he ate the whole thing and didn’t know where he was but only n waves. He said he’d never had something put him in outer space slumber soo hard before. He said he kept getting paranoid about forgetting his own lyrics. That he just wanted off that stage and go home. Instead of all those faces looking up at him. Shane loved weed his entire life and always hade the strongest dope I’ve ever had so this had to be really powerful. Dutch stuff. Love you and miss you comrade Shane OHooligan
Well,word on the street at the time was,he drank some/to much tea infused with mushrooms. And got totally wasted at the instant he got on stage. I stated before I was there, 18 years old and a huge fan of the Pogues. In fact, it was Shane McGowan and the Popes who were on the venue listed. The band mates took over right away when Shane began slurring and forgot his lines. So there are a lot of stories of what happened that day.
okay now it makes sense why shane was so messed up....jesus in 1984 i backpacked around europe that summer and got to amsterdam to catch my flight back to canada...bought a "space cake" from a bar and ate it in the taxi to the airport .....i cannot even begin to tell you how horrible that flight back to canada was....possibly the worse hours of my life , esp when peaking on that cake we hit bad turbulence over the atlantic....just thinking about it now makes me feel sick haha - hands down the most high in the worse way trip i ever had in my life from that space cake.
@@TravisBickle1963yes it’s the absolute truth that day. And they will even get you more on an empty stomach which was Shane’s case that day. He felt terrible for his fans and his band
Normally, in spite of however drunk the man may be, he still gets through the songs - and we, the audience remember what the lyrics are from the clearer album versions of songs (like Greenland Whale Fisheries - one in my estimation, The Pogues absolute BEST SONGS OF ALL TIME!!!) I Love Greenland Whale Fisheries!!! But this? Even during the St. Patrick's Day concert from the '80's here on youtube, ...he still remember lyrics! Here? Good LORD, SHANE!!! Seriously, as a teen, I'd have thought what a cool dude Shane is - he doesn't give a shit!! He couldn't care less. In my late 40's now, I've quite a different take on this... This performance is Goddamn pitiful!
This may be the only time I've seen Shane too wasted to sing. Usually however much he's had, he can always nail a song but I guess this time was too far out. Still an absolute legend!
This is as bad as the last Pogues gig in Tokyo. He was pretty much a car crash during the 90's. Saw the Pogues a few times in the 80's and they were ripping then he just went downhill and just about held it together. Saw them at the Fleadh in '91 and it was pitiful. Very sad day for me so i hope he's resting easy.

Una guitarra y una botella de whisky 🇮🇪 irlandés. En fin no se va ha quedar nadie aquí y algunos debemos ser nosotros los que les pongamos en órbita.
I don't really..I think being in a band with Shane they should have known how to cover for him better.. Even when they are trying to help him out or sing the songs themselves after he'd left they know hardly any of the lyrics etc.. I'm a singer and musician and just from knowing Shane's songs and the Pogues/Pope's recordings I could have helped out and filled in more than these guys.. The Pogues would have handled it better!
Fuck it actually looked like he was have an OD on stage before he was taken off. Shouldn’t have let him on in that condition in the first place. RIP Shane
Man, they must have been under a heavy contract to go on with him in that state. Poor man. The drummer looks like he knows that not only is this gig a blowout but the band won’t be going much longer. The guitarist is trying hard to hold the whole thing together . The bassist , the banjo player , and the flute player are playing well and not missing a note. Ten crowd don’t seem to give a damn and I can see that info was pissed I might be happy enough . The roadie is a damn life saver. Tiny note : that woman in red who is smiling in the wings when he gets led off seems to be the only person there dumb enough to actually find it funny.
@paulhamj6175 I thought it was, but I hoped it wasn’t . If she’s laughing at him while he’s almost dying on stage, you can imagine how much enabling she did the rest of the time. I really hope it’s not her.
What I find amazing is why are the people at the side of the stage smiling and laughing at him being carried off. He was in a really bad state there is nothing funny about it 😢
He said before that he would tell someone to f*#k off if they preached about his drinking, but did those a**holes have to be laughing when he was carried off stage? Still love how the band kept the show going
The pogues Pinkpop in '88..that concert i did see..much better....Joe Cocker Sinéad ò Connor Red Hot Chili Peppers...absolute the best of the best that year...Joe Cocker as final act..dreamact... Several are in rock heaven..RIP Sinèad Joe Herman Shane 😢
It was a hash cake. Too strong he got paranoid and wanted to go home. He often performed on an empty stomach, why he was soo thin back then, also a vegetarian. The hash cake made him feel terribly hungry and paranoid. He was great guy thru and thru
What an absolute racket, im sorry but thank god for the band that covered the fact he's absolutely off his face, so very sad, shouldn't of been on the stage in that state!
love macgowans songs....but this is so sad....makes elvis's last gigs look like broadway....mumbling cabbage...didnt even know that cigarette burned through both his knuckles....RIP Shane
lol, he's still recording! This is just a bad show. Like how snl or the simpsons has a bad show. I've seen him live 12 times and this tour and the next, he looked like he was gonna die. I think it might have been a brilliant marketing gimmick, tho, bc I always went to see him play live bc I thought he was gonna die soon. Now, we're both still here 24 years later
Elvis’s last shows still had “Elvis Moments” of amazing performance but this was so sad to me. I’m not a Shane hater I love him very very much but this was rough man.
I love the Pogues and Niel Diamond...but that Cracklin Rose is both unexpected and not very good at all. Sad to say..but RIP Shane, writer of some of the most exquisite songs I know.
How do figure? Because he's drunk as a monkey? These songs that he's "singing" are amazing songs! And he wrote most of them himself, but still can't remember any of the lyrics...This is a shameful embarrassment! Man...take a listen to the albums "Red Roses For Me" or "Rum Sodomy and the Lash"...or "If I Should Fall from Grace with God"! Their brilliant albums full of brilliant songs - energetic as all hell!! Bottled fire and brimstone, vulgar and traditional and beautiful and violent and horribly sad and terribly lovely at the same time! But this sir, this is NOT fucking great, I'm afraid.
I hear you. It's sad and embarrassing. Shane wrote some of the greatest Irish music ever and yet, here the man is...live (barely) and in person (again, barely). I don't get how anyone could see/listen to this atrocity and figure, "it's great".@@jeroencaluwe7828
It’s like he’s so f*cked up that he thinks, in his own head, that he’s doing great….but at the same time, if he is or isn’t, he’s totally oblivious to it, or that there’s any problem….i never did much in the way of pills, or opiates, or narcotics, but I drank like a whale, & I’ve had moments, and I think I’ve been drunk and f*cked up enuf to comprehend this madness…..wow tho, Shane was f’n brilliant, and a trooper…..and yeah, like someone said, they must’ve had HEAVY contractual pressure for the popes to put him onstage like that, I mean, it was his band, I assume he was in total control, unlike the pogues where there was much more democratic opposition to Shane’s whims ….at times anyway.
Ok…I had to read thru the comments to get some inking of what he was on…..Dutch hash cakes, all eaten at once for breakfast? Liquor infused with mushrooms? …..and not pills, or whatever….both of those stories make sense also, of course…..good lord, poor guy, Jesus.
I just put this on to remind myself of how absolutely and undoubtedly shite they were. My celtic supporting pals played their crap and got drunk, they never ever listened to them sober, ever, you still won't get anyone walking about with ghd pogues on in their earphones for example because they're shite- it's all about claiming you belong to Ireland and letting everyone hear it even though it is shite- the pogues themselves summed up in a sentence.
After the gig Shane apparently said “do you think anyone noticed I was a bit pissed?”
was he just pissed? wasn't this during his heroin period?
Hahaha😂
Amazing he could always deliver, keeping the memory of the lyrics in such a state. it makes him grand and showing he belongs to an other dimension
I love his lyrics hes one of the all time greats writers and i heard the birds whistle in the leaves and through the trees
It's not hard to remember words 😂
Best effort by the Popes to carry this one through the end🏆
Still, I find it surprising that members of the band have hardly a clue to any of the lyrics. Weren’t these guys Pogues fans before they became the Popes or at least during that time.🤔
Many thanks for uploading ! I was wondering if there was a full recording of this one. God bless from Irish Rover.

missing their singer still get the crowd going gorn boys in green 🍀

And The Popes were a great band by themselves!

@@darraghomalley1896 just read he died in 1996 whilst on tour with the Popes.
интересно, кобейн тоже стал бы таким если?
I can only imagine what he ingested.
It was a hash cake. Too strong he got paranoid and wanted to go home. He often performed on an empty stomach, why he was soo thin back then, also a vegetarian. The hash cake made him feel terribly hungry and paranoid. He was great guy thru and thru
Il était défoncés à l'hero..
I was there
Hard to watch. Poor guy.
Hard to believe he's still with us
Hard to watch ? He choose to drink and take drugs. That s disrespect for the rest oh the band
The Netherlands can do that to best of them. Beware the pot brownie haha. 🙏❤ SM
What an absolute racket, im sorry but thank god for the band that covered the fact he's absolutely off his face, so very sad, shouldn't of been on the stage in that state!
Probably thought being on stage would sober him up but he just got worse!! Must've had a massive sip just before going up!!
Sad seeing Shane this way but this is not The Pogues. It's Shane MacGowan & The Popes
Shane Mcgowan the king
love macgowans songs....but this is so sad....makes elvis's last gigs look like broadway....mumbling cabbage...didnt even know that cigarette burned through both his knuckles....RIP Shane
He's still alive!
@@hwgavin tell him that
@@shavedmonkey9821 Mumbling cabbage... this had me in stitches hahaha.. I agree, tell him that!
lol, he's still recording! This is just a bad show. Like how snl or the simpsons has a bad show. I've seen him live 12 times and this tour and the next, he looked like he was gonna die. I think it might have been a brilliant marketing gimmick, tho, bc I always went to see him play live bc I thought he was gonna die soon. Now, we're both still here 24 years later
Elvis’s last shows still had “Elvis Moments” of amazing performance but this was so sad to me. I’m not a Shane hater I love him very very much but this was rough man.
Oh man, what a Shane!!
I love the Pogues and Niel Diamond...but that Cracklin Rose is both unexpected and not very good at all. Sad to say..but RIP Shane, writer of some of the most exquisite songs I know.
This is The Popes not The Pogues. He was fired from The Pogues in 91.
This is fucking GREAT!!!
No it's not
How do figure? Because he's drunk as a monkey? These songs that he's "singing" are amazing songs! And he wrote most of them himself, but still can't remember any of the lyrics...This is a shameful embarrassment! Man...take a listen to the albums "Red Roses For Me" or "Rum Sodomy and the Lash"...or "If I Should Fall from Grace with God"! Their brilliant albums full of brilliant songs - energetic as all hell!! Bottled fire and brimstone, vulgar and traditional and beautiful and violent and horribly sad and terribly lovely at the same time!
But this sir, this is NOT fucking great, I'm afraid.
I hear you. It's sad and embarrassing. Shane wrote some of the greatest Irish music ever and yet, here the man is...live (barely) and in person (again, barely). I don't get how anyone could see/listen to this atrocity and figure, "it's great".@@jeroencaluwe7828
It’s like he’s so f*cked up that he thinks, in his own head, that he’s doing great….but at the same time, if he is or isn’t, he’s totally oblivious to it, or that there’s any problem….i never did much in the way of pills, or opiates, or narcotics, but I drank like a whale, & I’ve had moments, and I think I’ve been drunk and f*cked up enuf to comprehend this madness…..wow tho, Shane was f’n brilliant, and a trooper…..and yeah, like someone said, they must’ve had HEAVY contractual pressure for the popes to put him onstage like that, I mean, it was his band, I assume he was in total control, unlike the pogues where there was much more democratic opposition to Shane’s whims ….at times anyway.
Ok…I had to read thru the comments to get some inking of what he was on…..Dutch hash cakes, all eaten at once for breakfast? Liquor infused with mushrooms? …..and not pills, or whatever….both of those stories make sense also, of course…..good lord, poor guy, Jesus.
Shane is cool, he's just drunker than cooter brown
heroin
It's painful to watch... so sad :(
Omg what is that for
Junkie😂😂
Blue edition ,, looks the mutts
que deprê...
I just put this on to remind myself of how absolutely and undoubtedly shite they were. My celtic supporting pals played their crap and got drunk, they never ever listened to them sober, ever, you still won't get anyone walking about with ghd pogues on in their earphones for example because they're shite- it's all about claiming you belong to Ireland and letting everyone hear it even though it is shite- the pogues themselves summed up in a sentence.

Can someone please tell me the name of the language or dialect here, much appreciated
Dutch :)
@@Riccoassennl Much Appreciated, Thank You!
They all tryin to look cool with sun glasses on but Shane is the only cool one of them all
Shane is FUBAR and nobody cares, don't glorify his drug abuse.
This is The Popes - not Pogues!
this is The Popes, not The Pogues
How can' alcohol destroy a men.😩
