This week on Oh! Brother, we were chuffed to have the one and only Spider Stacy on the pod. Spider takes us right back to the pre‑Pogues days (the New Bastards, Millwall Chainsaws, Burton Street squats), the Ramones at the Roundhouse encounter with Shane, and how those first “Irish rebel songs” gigs snowballed from Cabaret Futura to suddenly packed rooms.
We also get into The Nips, Elvis Costello taking them out on the road, studio realities on Rum Sodomy & the Lash (whistle overdubs and all), and his first proper brush with The Fall via Peel and Industrial Estate. Plus: Ronnie Drew and the Dubliners, the Jack’s Heroes chaos, and what it’s been like keeping the songs alive with the post‑Shane live shows. Hope you enjoy!
