the pogues to play norway

That’s right, the Pogues are playing Drammen, Norway on the 27th of August! There are a lot of things I haven’t figured out with my life yet, but if there’s one thing I am absolutely certain about; it’s that I am going to see this show.

P.S. Tickets are put up for sale tomorrow (June 11th) at 12 p.m. (UTC+2) and cost 595 kroners, and the doors open at 7 p.m.
