    I met him at a gig in a north london pub with The Dubliners in tge early nineties
    Amazingly, In person, he could be quite shy. So, no it doesn't surprise me at all he seemed embarrassed when he said the name of the band meant 'kiss my ass' 😂 but it is quite funny.
    it was an incredible honour to meet you. The world has lost a top poet and musician but a wonderful and humanitarian person too. He really was a geniius, a one-off. DEP sensitive soul, thanks so much for the music. 😢😢😢

      I can confirm that. Met him in his youth and yes, he could be quite shy.
      It was probably because he was so sentisive and shy that he turned into that fearless, wild singer who was usualy drinking when he was on stage. Top bloke, excellent poet and singer but, above all, a great person! DEP kind soul. ☘️ 😢❤

      Born in Kent, England to an Irish republican family. His grandfather held the rank of commandant (major) in the Irish War of Independence. Shane McGowan had no love of England and confessed that he wished to join the Irish Republican Army during the Northern Ireland Troubles to fight against the British. McGowan turned to music to console himself for not being in the Irish Republican Army.

    I am sorry.... why does anyone consider this guy a genius? I don't hate him, don't know him, but the hero-worship is WAY too much. He is of average intelligence and aged 62 he is now an invalid taken care of by carers. I am 58 and I have seven kids. My greatest triumph is looking after those kids; telling them I love them, telling them they are amazing, making them feel so loved. I don't know if this MacGowan has kids but if he does I feel sorry for them; they are not first in his sorry life.

      While marrying, raising children are commendable, Shane McGowan, however, belongs to a small fraternity of songwriters/poets and is considered by his peers as perhaps the greatest songwriter/poet of his generation. McGowan was a genius and his songs/poems will last for millennia.
