| A musician, an actor, a manager... As well as Shane's friend, nurse, body guard, sparring partner, voice, both hands and fuck knows who else... "Joey Cashman had first picked up a saxophone in 1978 and started playing in a series of bands in his native Dublin: Fast Skirts, The Mod-L's and DC9 who achieved relative fame as Tokyo Olympics. Joey later got involved in film, working on a series of videos and building up his own portfolio. On arriving back from The Pogues US tour Joey found work as a sound assistant on Alex Cox's Straight To Hell, and was biding his time for future film work when he was offered Darryl's position with The Pogues." from Ann Scanlon's The Lost Decade, 1988 |
