“To celebrate the 40th anniversary of our second LP, Rum Sodomy & the Lash, a veritable Super Session of musicians, a Last Waltz if you will including the Pogues themselves, members of bands will gather to rekindle the music on the record with a new fire. We’re looking forward not just to raising a glass or two but also to raising the roof with our fans and friends, old and new, to celebrate the music we’ve made and the alliances we’ve formed over the years,” said James Fearnley, Jem Finer, and Spider Stacy.
Released in 1985, Rum Sodomy & the Lash is a cornerstone of punk and alternative rock that is renowned for its raw energy, poetic lyrics and infectious melodies. The band is set to play the legendary album in full, including b-sides, extended version tracks plus a special selection of their most beloved material.
