So, just saw the Murphys for the 2nd time in 6 months. 

F**k me!  Those guys kick ass live.

Tonight, I put my 34yo ass in the pit... never doing that again.
I solve my problems like an adult, at the strip club drinking on a work night.

Saw them last year with The Bosstones.

Bosstones gave a better performance, Dropkick had A LOT more energy.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Seriously, when i am 800years old i want to rock like Lemmy! it is a religion that requires lots of determination, drugs, and Marshall stacks.

I haven't been in a pit in close to 10 years.  I'm more than happy to keep it that way.

I've seen DKM close to 15 times now.  I go see them every chance I get.  Awesome live show.  Not as awesome now that they have a new guitarist.  The old guy, Mark, was nuts and was a great part of the show.

Bosstones are still around?

My favorite all time concert was in like `97. Dropkick Murphys, Mustard Plug and the Pietasters at Tramps NYC. Oh the good ol days.

The Dropkicks are great live. I've probably seen them over 50 or 60 times. A few years back, I got hired to do a photo shoot with them in Fenway Park. We had the run of the field for the day, it was awesome.
Here's a scan of the article the pics were published in;


I haven't been in the pit at a Dropkicks show in a while, I get photo passes now and just watch from the side of the stage. I did though, go in the pit at an Agnostic Front show about a year ago, and I'm 39 now.

i forgot how hard it is to breath in the pit...
i jumped back in a few years ago at a face to face show....

DKM rocks though!!

39 Years old & spent an hour in the pit & then on stage for " Shipping up to Boston " to end the March 15th show at The House of Blues in Boston. quite the work-out.

But I also think having lots of  [drink] Helps  ;D

If you haven't had the chance get to Boston for their St.Pats day wek-end shows at The House of Blues. I've seen them a few times at a few different venues, but the energy of Dropkicks & the crowd there is the best.

Never cared much for mustard plug.. but was at the Pietasters shows all the time. I was lucky enough to be just a few years younger than much of the band and lived in the same area. They sold me their 1st tape out of a car while I was walking down the street. Oh for the days when DC made music.

DKMs is a great show... they just don't come to DC near enough  :-\

I didn't go to the DKM shows at HOB this year. I went a couple of weeks ago for Rancid and wasn't impressed with the room at all. It was gen admission, but they weren't letting anyone else onto the floor, I got stuck on the second level for a while and had a lovely view of the lighting rig. Just as I was about to leave, because I was sick of watching the lights, the security guard who was in front of the elevator ran off somewhere and I got on the elevator and went to the floor level. Down there wasn't bad, but I think I liked Avalon better.

I think DKM makes it out to Hawaii every now and then. I know they were there last year sometime.

iirc, they played twice... didn't go to this last one, though
