Steve's collaboration with the Pogues on "Copperhead Road". Steve almost
sounds like Shane "Why're My Teeth So Rotten" MacGowan. Does anyone know
how Steve ended up working with those guys? I have heard him do some
other Celtic

I would've loved to have been a fly on the wall during that session.
You think Shane and Steve shared a couple of chemicals?
The Pogues
I was lucky to see the Pogues on the "If I Should Fall From

I have to agree with this. That show I saw

You have to wonder how much Rounder is charging them
for the discs...maybe the only way they can profit off it is to charge that
much..
Rounder's artist price is $6 a unit. I'd say they're making quite a profit...
