and heading to Germany this Summer.

Irish punk balladeers The Pogues have just announced a special summershow on 31st July 2010 in Münster, Germany.

Although The Pogues--who reunited in 2004, including original lead singer Shane MacGowan--haven't released an album of original music since 1996's "Pogue Mahone," the band has remained busy on the reissue front. Earlier this year, the group released a five-disc box set of outtakes and demos. "Just Look Them Straight In The Eye and Say... POGUEMAHONE!!" features 109 tracks culled from the group's vaults, ranging from demos cut in 1983 to live recordings from the band's series of reunion shows in 2001.

In 2006, the group, in association with Rhino Records, released re-mastered and expanded versions of its first five studio albums: "Red Roses For Me" (1984), "Rum, Sodomy & The Lash" (1985), "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" (1988), "Peace And Love" (1989) and "Hell's Ditch" (1990). Each CD contains up to seven additional songs over the original releases, as well as completely new liner-note booklets.
