One time when I saw the Tossers back in 2007, the lead singer did "And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda" as a solo, no instruments at all, and it was incredible. Thanks for the Pogues version!
I haven't listened to a lot of the Tossers, but what I have, I liked. I'm definitely going to have to check into the Killigans more deeply.

Ain't that the truth! One of my favorite channels on satellite radio is the 70's channel. Reminds me of my misspent youth.........LOL

I've never been a fan of Axel Rose so I've never quite enjoyed that song as much as I did this version. I went and looked for it after you mentioned it and found it on YouTube. I'll post it for anybody else who'd like to hear this version. Also, below that I'm posting a version of the same song as done by Sheryl Crow. Another excellent version of this song!
