Missing Persons Find the Whisky: Dale Bozzio has kept the Missing Persons flag flying, and they can often be found on those ‘80s multi-band bills that they have at the Greek every year.Did you know, though, that Missing released a new album this year, called Hollywood Lie? Cleopatra Records describes it as, “The visionary new studio album from ’80s new wave legends, Missing Persons, that revives the band’s vintage sound and extraordinarily catchy songwriting! Featuring all original material themed around the familiar story of a young starlet caught up in the glitz, glamor and empty promises of Hollywood, this is without a doubt the best album the band has done since their ’80s heyday!” Intriguing!Meanwhile, Pinktastic Plastixx is also on the bill. “Pinktastic Plastixx formed roughly in August of 2022 and I actually had to look back at our first band rehearsal pic to figure this out,” Hollywood Pink Lady Kitten Kay Sera told us in February. “I had the idea… but it t...

Shane MacGowan: Remembering this troubled genius with 5 great songs

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 16:08:10 GMT

Shane MacGowan was a troubled genius.He struggled with drugs and alcohol, as well as numerous health problems, and fans spent decades worrying about his seemingly self-destructive behavior. Yet, he was also a Celtic punk poet of the highest order, who, at his best, would lift his main band — the legendary Pogues — to such incredible heights.I feel so blessed to have had the chance to see him perform in concert, both with the Pogues and as the leader of Shane MacGowan and the Popes. In all cases, he was off kilter, not always easy to understand and, more than anything else, completely thrilling.On Thursday (Nov. 30), the great songwriter died at the age of 65 after a long battle viral encephalitis.As a tribute to this mighty talent, and with the hope of introducing his music to some of the uninitiated, I have rounded up 5 songs that illustrate his lasting genius.“Fairytale of New York” (1987)In recognition of its overwhelming popularity as well as the season we are ...
