The Pogues at the Showbox Sodo 10/10/09: To Pogue or Not to Pogue?

UPCOMING SHOW
The reunited celtic punk band The Pogues just announced a Seattle stop on their tour on October 10th. It's an all-orgininal lineup, and I absolutely love the band.

Two bits of bad news, though: 1) the tickets are $50 a piece and 2) the show is at the Showbox Sodo. I really hate that venue. The place is like a giant warehouse--tinny sound, too many people standing on one level, and expansive space with no thought to design. Seriously, it's like being at a rave circa 1990.

To Pogue or Not to Pogue? I can't decide, but here's some inspiration.
