Grace and I headed out to the Dropkick Murphys show tonight at the Orbit Room. Excellent show, we had a great time!
One thing I have to wonder about is whether there's actually any real value in getting to the front row at a show like this. I think those people spent most of the night tossing crowd surfers to the security guys. I don't think I'd be very happy up there -- I didn't come to the show to be put to work. After watching a few of the girls get passed through, I'm not really sure what the appeal is... unless you LIKE having random strangers grab your boobs and ass, what's the draw?
They closed out the show with I'm Shipping Up to Boston (about a sailor who's lost his leg) and they pulled a kid from the crowd that actually HAD lost his leg -- he "danced" the whole time with his metal leg bent backward at the knee, hopping around a stage and having a great time. Very cool!
Anyway, here's the song you probably know:
