Pogues & friends pay tribute to Phil Chevron

A tribute to the Pogues' Phil Chevron took place at the Olympic Theater in Ireland on Saturday. Chevron was diagnosed with cancer in 2007 and recently he revealed the cancer is terminal. Friends, fans, and loved ones gathered together on August 24th to pay tribute and say goodbye to Chevron while there's still time.  Shane McGowan, Gavin Friday, and Luka Bloom were among the musicians who performed at the event. Video from the Philip Chevron Testimonial is posted below, several pictures are posted here, and the full concert (audio only) is available to stream here.
