My other favorite holiday song. I know a few things about Christmases in New York City. I even survived a Shane MacGowan concert in 1999...
RIP Kirsty MacColl...

I had no idea the horrible circumstances surrounding Kristy Maccoll's death.
I, too, survived a Shane MacGowan concert - at the Black Cat in DC of all places, probably circa 1995 or 1996.
It really is awful what happened to her. I'm sure you're familar with her version of the Kinks' "Days". Saddens me everytime I hear it now after her death...
Did you see the Pogues are playing the 930 Club in March? First show already sold out. Second show should be announced soon, so watch www.930.com.
