Have a feeling he will live into his 60s then it will catch up with him big time.

Pogues guitarist Phil Chevron's cancer has returned, and is now terminal.

 

Damn! I dropped him from my lists for the past couple of years. He could have given a bit more of a warning

Phil Chevron of the Pogues has died. Another of the IISFFGWG album contributors Shane has outlived.

Unique hit for me on my own personal deadpool.Sad loss though

You and me both. I can see most of my prospective 2014 list jumping the gun.

I suppose any dance move is complicated after 20 pints of Guinness!

For a split second I thought you were making a personal statement!!!

Then I considered the point that you probably havent made any 'complicated' moves for, about, 40 years...... :lol:

Looool, there's a documentary coming up about him getting new teeth, titled "A wreck reborn":

 

http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2015/dec/20/shane-macgowan-a-wreck-reborn-new-teeth-tv-special

 

The article implies that he will be able to eat apples again. But the new teeth might also damage his distinctive vocals.

Hmm, the article says that he had new ones made in 2009, but they were a "botch". But I didn't follow him that closely, so I couldn't tell...

And I was a year out (just couldn't add up ffs, Xmas day 1957 = 58 on Friday).

Shane MacGowan looking very frail and worse for wear in recent photos.Mind you, I have never seen any photos of him looking well. A possibility for 2017 or 2018 if he survives that long?

I did look on this forum to see if he had already been mentioned, but could not find his name. Apologies if there is already a thread for him.

 

You didn't look very hard. The thread was on the next page.

He did look quite bad. Mind you no one looks their best at their mother's funeral.

Balls to 2018, judging by those pictures I'd say he died three years ago.
