| It's The Petion that turned Joey into celebrity of ill fame It's The Petion that placed his name on pages of national press It's The Petion that makes us hold our breathe and follow correspondence between interested parties guessing will Shane sack him or will he not... |

| 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 |

| "All thumbs" - an after-show photocall. Master photographer - Noel Kenny. Donegal, 28 Dec, 2008. (Sharon Shannon + guests post-Christmas Irish tour). JJ Horns' testimony: "Shane has extra help in the form of Joey, friend and PA who ensures timely depatures from hotels, hotel bars, and venues, though on at least one occasion it's been Shane who's helped Joey stumble out of a venue and back to the hotel." -- The Pogues' Dec 2008 tour. "The Irish Rover" live in Virginia, Co. Cavan, 25 Oct, 2008. Self appointed cameramen should be more appreciative of whistlers and leave singers alone.. A unique but shitty footage. |

And at 2009 Photos here. And mini review by dublinrambler: "Great craic in Wexford on New Years night... Seemed like a full house, or very nearly a full house. The crowd was really rowdy, in a good way... Shane came on and get a great job, but this time for me the true highlight was Joey Cashmans dance moves while playing that whistle of his... Priceless." |
