A band no one can hate....

[gutter]

I didn't think it was possible, but last night I saw a band that anyone can have a good time watching regardless of music preference. Flogging Molly is their name, go burn some stuff of theirs. It's basically an Irish drinking band. It's Celtic punk, hard driven fast paced songs, fused with flutes, trumpets, violins, accordians, and even a mandolin. I've never heard anything quite like it. Check em out.

These guys kick ass! I downloaded Devil's Dance Floor and Salty Dog. Very nice

I like alternative instrumentation in a rock/pop setting so I'll give it a try.

Good choices Big Mark. Did you know those two or picked em by blind luck. THose happen to be two of the best.

gutter, salty dog kicks. i like them both too! also, "the likes of you again" is great. :cool:

[gutter]

Hey lex, go for "it's been the worst day since yesterday", and "Delihla(sp?)".

[lex]

i got "been the worst day since..." downloading delilah now. this is awesome, gutter. i love the "alternative instrumentation" as mags would say. love the mandolin and whatever that other instrument, i just cant figure. not violin, another string...

damn, gutter...this is just sweeeet!

[magnus]

There's accordion in there. I dunno if that's what you're after or not.
as I listen there's a violin in there I think. maybe Viola. Dunno.

[gutter]

There's like 8 people the band, all from Ireland. They have a drummer, electric guitar, singer plays acoustic, bass, accordian, trumpet, banjo, mandolin, and this chick kicks ass on the violin and something called a tin whistle. The crowd was all over the board. You had everything from spiked mohawks to derby wearing scotsman. A lot of fighting and a lot of drinking. Ar, me felt like I was in Ireland.

mags, salty dog friggen rocks! so primal!!! hahaha...i can dig this...celtic tunes rule. viola? its the viola! not the accordion...accordion is percussion, isnt it....i definitely hear some sort of weird string instrument... :D

[magnus]

is it multitonic? Sounds real strange, starts off the song with the guitar?

[lex]

bass? what is that sound? like banjo? fiddle? son of a gun!!! gutter you went yard on this one. YARD! you know? i use that as a football term when one runs the ball and then rolls another yard... that is what you did, babe! hahaha... :luxlove:

[gutter]

Thanx lex, this is one of the few bands we would agree on, that and Live. Look up, I posted all the instruments they drug out last night.:)

[mramailman]
