Dropkick Murphys- On the Road With the Dropkick Murphys

Product Description Since 1997, Boston's Dropkick Murphys have put out six incredibly successful releases. This is the first DVD from the band and includes over four hours of material on one DVD. Includes a full live show from the 2002 Boston St. Patrick's Day weekend in Amazon.com If you thought the Pogues were the only band to spike their punk with the Celtic spirit, you don't know the Dropkick Murphys. Granted, the Bostonians rock faster and harder, but the Old Sod still lives on in their tunes. On the Road features over four hours of Murphys madness. The six-part journey begins with an annual event, the boys live in Beantown on St. Paddy's Day (also available as an Epitaph CD). The playing is inspired, the crowd is pumped. That's not unusual for a rock concert. What is unusual are the step dancers, the punk-rock "Amazing Grace," and the tartan-sporting bagpipe player (Spicy McHaggis). 65 Days of Hell documents DKM on tour throughout the U.S. and Canada. They drink, they skate, they bowl--they play music, too. Behind the Scenes is a rambling look at the band around the world over the course of the years. Finland, Australia, Japan--you name it. The lads have fans wherever they go. Black and Gold is a quickie capturing DMK at a Bruins game. Then you get seven music videos, one ("Barroom Hero") featuring original singer Mike McColgan (replaced by Al Barr), and a short about DKM and their second favorite holiday (Labor Day). On the Road is 260 minutes of bliss for the Dropkick Murphys aficionado. All right everyone, repeat after me: "Let's go, Murphys!" --Kathleen C. Fennessy
