  11. What to do on St. Patrick's Day

    <b>THE POGUES</b> Irish eyes will be a-smilin', and probably a-glazed over too, at these most relevant of St. Patty's Day shows. Irish folk-punk legends the Pogues have been reunited since 2001, but fans' appetites for their shambolic, poetic tunes show no signs of diminishing. The band has not recorded any new music, so the show is sure to be a singalonger's dream. Frontman Shane MacGowan just hit 50 and still rocks as hard as ever, crediting diligent partying for his continued existence -- so we expect the &quot;streams of whiskey" to be flowing as copiously onstage as off. Cheers! With Billy Bragg and William Elliot Whitmore, and Marseille Figs on the 15th. March 15 : 6:30 p.m.; March 16 : 6:30 p.m.; March 17 : 6:30 p.m.; Roseland Ballroom; 239 W. 52nd St.; 212-247-0200; $55
