Rock Myths #31

Irish skiffle group, Snow Patrol, were joined for a short time by Shane McGowan on lead vocals. However, he left after a fateful night at a gig in Tipperary when he briefly sobered up enough to realise that they were not, in fact, the Pogues. His vocals do still remain on the band's anthemic UK breakthrough, 'Run' - if you listen closely you will hear Streams of Whisky being screeched in the background of the chorus.
