Happy St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick’s Day.

Today seems like an appropriate day to pull out some Dropkick Murphys. And what better than a few songs from their 2002 live album, Live on St. Patrick's Day from Boston, MA.

Live on St. Patrick's Day was recorded, obviously enough, during three shows at the Avalon Ballroom in Boston over the March 15-17 St. Patrick’s weekend. The album was released in September 2002.

The Boston St. Patrick’s shows are a long-standing DKM tradition. If you’re in the Boston area tonight, of course the Dropkick Murphys will be there, closing out a weeklong stand at the House of Blues.

If you – like me – are not in the Boston area, enjoy whatever it is you do and take care: there are going to be lots of amateur Irish out tonight.

Sláinte!

@LP
Great post. When I worked in Boston, we used to line up at the Black Rose at 0530 on Saint Paddy's to get in for the morning rev up with the Murphy's and then go to work!!
