PressGanged went live on 10th October 2000 as my tribute to one of the most vibrant bands of the 80's and 90's,
The Pogues (1982-1996) were one of the few bands that took the decade by the neck and gave it a good hiding.

In 2001, the band got back together for a series of shows around christmas, to rave reviews.
The magic was back, and the atmosphere and music has been captured in a live cd being released soon,
in the meantime put on one of their cds and have a look around here.

If you can see the animation below you'll be able to view the enhanced History, Discography and Gallery pages.

Streams Of Whiskey has been commercially released without the permission of the band.
It's a poor recording from a Swiss festival in 1991, recorded from a radio broadcast and previously available as a bootleg,
trust me I've got it and it's not great!
There will be an official live album released possibly this year from over the last two nights of the recent Brixton shows.

Any questions or comments drop me an email, and I'll see if I can answer it. Check the FAQ section.
