The Pogues brought their annual festive tour, and a healthy dose of Christmas spirit, to London last night (December 18th).
The band wowed a sold out crowd on what was the first night of a three night residency at the Brixton Academy.
Fronted by Shane McGowan, who looked resplendent in a black suit jacket, the group delivered a set of greatest hits.
But it was their now iconic festive song, 'Fairytale of New York', which drew the biggest reception.
You can purchase tickets for the bands show at the venue tonight (December 19th) and tomorrow (December 20th) on Gigwise here.
