- The Pogues - 1985-12-13 - Queen Margaret Union, Glasgow, Scotland claims to be the earliest surviving video of a full length Pogues concert. Quality is not bad all things considered. For historic value it's actually fairly good.

This is brilliant, whoever filmed it should be given a knighthood...The beautiful chaos of The Pogues in their pomp, meeting up in the early afternoon, having a good drink then going to see them in the evening.... I'd go back to those days in a heartbeat, RIP Kirsty, Phil, Daryl and Shane xxxx
❤
I agree .I watched them from 85 onwards ..mainly in mcr dont ever remember hearing them this good.. whoever had the foresight to record bearing in mind it would be on a hand held cini camera is beyond me .I could barely keep myself upright at these gigs.a heartfelt thanks to this person.
Just wish he stayed well to sing and write like this for longer. They were only a band for a year here and five years later he couldn't sing or write songs! Massive loss to music. Fir me him and Kurt Cobain are the biggest losses
Look at him just belting it out here. Rest in peace Shane. A legend.
This is a jewel ... catching band before they got destroyed going on wotld tours and the hype of fairy-tale.... songs you dont hear much live
Poor Shane young vibrant and full of energy..... it does show how much he fell in the ensuing years...
Thanks for posting this
This is them at their peak for me.
I know, it's tragic only a few yrs later he looked,talked,walked,sang like a different person. His sister and dad hated fairytale as the tour they put him on coz he was never the same again. An alcoholic and heroin addict after that tour
Was at this and also the two following Barrowland gigs in 86 and 87. One of my greatest musical memories was seeing Kirsty MacColl come onstage during the '87 show to sing Fairytale with Shane. Such a beautiful surprise! I only found out a couple of days ago that this was the first time it had ever been played live in public. I feel truly honoured to have experienced this event, one of the greatest songs of all time and the togetherness of two of the most amazing and talented individuals. I missed Kirsty so much when she left too early. It never seemed right. Now Shane. But they will both be remembered for their huge hearts, immense generosity and freedom of spirit. May they be making merry, laughing and enjoying the heavens above. After all, it's only returning home...❤
Apparently this was the first ever time they did FONY live . I remember it well
I was at this gig What a brillliant nite Saw them a few times in Scotland Remember drinking in the sarecens head pub beforehand 👍
My school’s mascot was a Saracen - to which every other school used to say “What the F is a Saracen?” (because evidently they didn’t have books at their school). You just took me back all those years, lol.
An amazing historical document. If I had a time machine, I'd go back and see the early Pogues. This whole mess makes me feel like crying and glad to be alive at the same time.
So many amazing memories I would meet Shane and Philip in the Heilen Jessie pub before they played the Glasgow Barrowlands and we would have a glass or two and a sing song with the old boys in the pub before they played in Barrowlands. You'll never be forgotten Philip and I'm sure you still have a glass as you watch over us all. Stay strong Shane love and respect xxx
Sir , You are a legend. This is a fantastic video .
It may not be 4k video with dolby surround sound , but it does capture the raw sound and energy from a paying punters perspective.
Thanks you.
This is great footage,I was at the Mayfair,Newcastle on the same tour so this takes me right back.Nobody could touch The Pogues live in 1985.
I went to the Manchester gig on this tour, early 1986 I think, It was hands down the greatest live event I've ever seen.
Brilliant footage! What a band they were. Shane Macgowan is a genuis.
He'd already wrote 'streams of whiskey' 'a pair of brown eyes' 'whiskey your the devil' 'sally maclenne' 'the old main drag' 'suck bed of cuchailan' 'boys of the county hell' ... Classics
fantastic
This music fills me with joy, what an incredible band
Amazing
This was my first ever gig. Thanks for the upload.
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. Came here in sorrow at Shane's death. :-(
First saw them at The Hammersmith Palais in 1986

amazing footage to have captured.
Holy shit this is amazing.
fantastic. this has always been my favorite lineup: with Terry, Phillip and Cait. Short lived, wonderful.
I agree! In many ways, Poguetry in Motion was their peak. Not just the songwriting and tightness of the band, enhanced by Terry's expertise, but the sheer range: an Irish instrumental, a three-act play that foreshadowed Fairytale (Body), a devastating romantic ballad and a totally unexpected soul banger. Imagine if they'd made and recorded more tunes in that mode, when Shane was unstoppable, rather than waiting two more years to release...
sori 2 burst your bubble chris but cait,s not in the line up on this footage
my apologies to chris amsbary, just watched it again and noticed cait 32 minutes in, so fair play 2 ye
Thank You Soooooo Much xx
rest easy
Hats off to you Sir - amazing to see this, saw every Barrowland gig and have a couple of recordings but this is the closest I'll get to being back in the Barras x
Not the Barras, though!
wow! what fing epic footage when they were hungry and razor sharp.
Thanks
Thank you for posting this
I’m now in 50s and haven’t seen many better bands over years. Love them.
Cant believe this was 1985!
Travel well chief 🥃❤️
I was there. My first Pogues gig of many. It was the QM's Daft Friday event (Daft Friday was the GUU's event. I can't remember what the QM's event was - Dafter Friday?). Costello was there, trying to blend in to the background. Some have claimed this was the Barrowland show which IIRC they played the next day, but if you look at the size of the stage and the backdrop, it's definitely the QM.
What's that intro melody called? That's awesome 🍻
fuckin banging
What a gig I'd say that was
Didn't see them till 88 - would have loved to be at that one!!
Who shot this ? These days they complain about camera phones but thank god for whoever brought half their living room in a bag to capture this
I wish I knew who shot this. I would give full credit but is unknown. Thanks Unknown Camera Person!
This is fucking sensational. Thank you!
Also, Shane in his prime must be one of the coolest frontmen of all time.
Great vid...well done for getting this on here! Do you know of any recording or them as support to U2 at Murrayfield in 1987 (Joshua Tree ) ?
I''ll check my sources but if I had seen it before I would have got it. I never even knew that played with U2, not a fan but that's interesting.
Shane rattling this words out..... Transmetropolitan.....,,,,amazing!
I love at 28:18 the Joeys in America bass
Pogues at there peak or close to it 🏆
Bloody hell i wish he didnt mess himself up so quick! After fairytale and that long tour he became dependent on alcohol and a heroin addict and never the same again. Couldnt sing , couldn't write songs and just lived in misery. And people forget he was a genius got a scholarship to a public private school where prime minister went
