Filthy Macnasty's

The best of St. Paddy's continues with the Pogues ultimate drinking song: Streams of Whiskey. The pub shown in this video is Filthy Macnasty's, Pogues' singer/song writer Shane MacGowan's favorite watering hole. We made a pilgrimage there when I was in London. It's in a slightly dodgy area off Kings Cross tube station. Nothing much to the pub but they had a bunch of Shane's gold records framed on the wall. They pour a nice Guinness there and were friendly.

Ok, you're reading this in the morning and the beer isn't flowing yet, but it will be later. Here's the greatest Irish band, to get you in the mood.
