Tonight we saw the Dropkick Murphy's live... it turned out being my first punk rock show. And just like you always hear about the crazy stuff that happens at those shows, it happened tonight. Thankfully, we chose to stay towards the back and away from all the hardcore fans, and still got to enjoy the music. I have to say though... I don't think I could ever be a punk rock music fan. The Dropkicks are a bit of punk mixed in with a bit of Irish pride. In fact, right before their first song... all the stage lights were turned off and Sinead O'Connor's version of Foggy Dew was played, all the way through.. it was really awesome to hear it with that kind of system... I'm used to just listening to it in the car--so much quieter. Anyway, the Dropkicks were definitely more tolerable than the hardcore punk band that played before them...so I give them a B+ in my book. They didn't play Rocky Road to Dublin like I had hoped, but they did throw in ONE song I knew, but that was it (Fields of Athenry).I honestly think I'd rather listen to Flogging Molly live rather than the Dropkicks because it's less punk rock. That's just me.
