The Pogues have announced their North American tour for the first time in 14 years as part of the 40th anniversary celebration of their classic album, 'Rum Sodomy & the Lash.' The tour features surviving members James Fearnley, Jem Finer, and Spider Stacy, performing shows in the U.S. and Canada, complemented by various special guests. The band expressed eagerness to celebrate their music and legacy, rekindling connections with fans and artists alike, following the recent passing of frontman Shane MacGowan.
In a press release, the band said, “To celebrate the fortieth anniversary of our second LP, Rum Sodomy & the Lash, a veritable Super Session of musicians, a Last Waltz if you will...will gather to rekindle the music on the record with a new fire.
The Pogues will kick off the previously announced UK leg of the tour on May 1 at O2 Academy Leeds, with North American shows occurring between September 5 and 17.
