Re: Elvis Costello/ Phil Chevron
Thanks for posting that, John.
I'm quite fond of the "The Captains and the Kings/Faithful Departed" single (and of course,The Pogues). It's most unfortunate that this has happened to Phil - but at least he's hanging in there.

Re: Phil Chevron RIP
It's great to see Phil was up 'n about right to the end. Here is his last 'Going to the theatre' entry on the Pogues forum -

Rusalka by Antonín Dvorák, libretto by Jaroslav Kvapil (Gaiety Theatre, Dublin) September 21
I am sometimes in the custom of scrawling a brief note, at the end of a show, on the first page of my programmes, with a view to fleshing out the basic idea later. "Kinda thrilling" it says and I have found nothing in the ensuing 24 hours to improve on that, not even a fairly desultory game of Irish football on Sunday. Real 5-star opera is seen in Dublin at last and, as a rule, with Dvorák, kinda means "very". And "very" means your breath has been taken away by one or more aspects of the production. Bravi!!

Re: Phil Chevron RIP
Phil and the rest of The Pogues provided me with much fun, quality music and excuses to drink.
I remember sitting in a pub in Sheffield in 85/86 before a show when all The Pogues walked in, had a look round, saw it was full of studenty types and then promptly departed.
RIP Phil

Re: Phil Chevron RIP
I was lucky enough to meet Phil a couple of times, albeit pretty briefly.
Some memories of that here.
RIP Phil.
