What every neo-celtic punk pop band aspires to be (Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphys, The Tossers, etc). On vox, Shane Macgowan, a legend in his own right. Contrary to popular belief, only some members of the Pogues are from Ireland. The first three LPs, classic (Red Roses for Me, Rum Sodomy and the Lash, If I Should Fall From Grace With God). Alcoholism and rumored drug abuse accusations created a rift between Shane and the rest of the band, leading to an eventual breakup. The Pogues released albums without Shane, and Shane formed his own band, The Popes. There are many bands that have been influenced by the Pogues, but the original is still the greatest.
The Pogues are great. Streams of Whiskey, anyone?

The name of said band comes from Irish (or Celtic) "pogue mahone" which means "kiss my ass".
Pogue mahone means kiss my ass.

Originally US Army slang, it was used as a term of contempt for a non-combat soldier. The term, derived from the Gaelic 'Póg' meaning arse, carries with it an implication of unmanliness, homosexuality, even paedophilia, since Hershey bars and other types of candy are known as ‘pogue bait’. Demonstrating the complete contempt of the combat soldier for any kind of REMF, it was probably first used troops of Irish descent but quickly became widespread as unpopular WASP officers would not know what it meant.
In Gaelic one use of the word would be in the phrase ‘Póg mo thóin’ (pronounced pogue mahone) meaning 'kiss my arse'
That pedo journalist out here on assignment is stockin' up on pogue bait again.
That pogue, REMF, asswipe wrote me up when he caught me jerking off in the latrine!

Derogatory phrase used by front-line infantry units to describe rear-support or staff units.
Screw those leg-ass pogues!
