Born To Rock...

Dec. 14th, 1958 - Peter "Spider" Stacy, former co-vocalist and tin whistle player with The Pogues - and lead vocalist for the last 2 albums - was born...

And, really, there's only one Pogues' song you can play this time of year, isn't there?

"Fairytale Of New York", with the late, great Kirsty MacColl (and it's hard to believe that this coming Thursday it will be 8 years since she was tragically killed)...
