40 Years of Rum Sodomy & the Lash
The Pogues have announced their first UK headline tour in 13 years celebrating 40 years of their iconic album Rum Sodomy & the Lash. Released in 1985, Rum Sodomy & the Lash is a cornerstone of punk and alternative rock, renowned for its raw energy, poetic lyrics, and infectious melodies.
The tour will feature original members James Fearnley, Jem Finer, and Spider Stacy along with special guests in their first UK appearance since 2014.
The Pogues
By demonstrating that the spirit of punk could live in traditional Irish folk music, the Pogues were one of the most radical bands of the mid-80s. Famed for their wild and exciting live acts, lead singer Shane MacGowan's relentless drug and alcohol abuse meant the cult Irish folk punksters were forced to disband in the mid 90s. They reunited in 2001 and performed across the world on and off until 2014 when they took another hiatus. Following the death of Shane MacGowan in 2023, the surviving members reunited for a handful of tribute shows before announcing in late 2024 that they would head out on tour again with original members James Fearnley, Jem Finer, and Spider Stacy along with special guests.
