 Saint Patrick's Day Happy Hour - 2006
HAPPY HOUR at the Shamrock Cafe - Friday March 17, 2006 - 4:00 - 8:00 p.m.
=D :D =D :D =D
Let's see how many people will show up for Happy Hour between 4:00 and 8:00. The Forum has a feature "Most People Ever On-Line"....so far it's three. Let's see if we can break the record! Open Bar! Green Beer! If possible, please bring an Irish joke to tell when you arrive!
---ENTERTAINMENT---
and for the more mellow types there'll be a sing-a-long with the Irish Tenors upstairs in the Cafe.

Re: Saint Patrick's Day Happy Hour - 2006
Actually that lovely little girl in the stripped dress is my cousin. I am holding her baby sister. I am the one with the oh so trendy Twiggy haircut of the times - it was the 60's and the Bristish Invasion and the Mod Look was all the buzz. I will try to stop in for happy hour on St. Paddy's Day - that is if I am not out eating a cornbeef and cabbage dinner at the Kinsale Inn.

 Re: Saint Patrick's Day Happy Hour - 2006
Well we've just concluded this year's Irish High holiday. Normally my better half would do this annual tradition, her's more than mine, next week but alas time and other considerations, made this early celebration a .... must do ... now. That said, none of her kinfolk seemed too upset ... there was some .... hmmm ... muttering .... about how now there are 2 drinking holidays this month. There seemed to be much rejoicing, and accompanining drink (?), at this finding. All I can say ... my liver has a week to recouperate ! So anyone have a liver to spare/rent ? I just may have a need ... I'm willing to pay the going rates !

It's a band with some kind of Irish roots. Their new album cover looks mysteriously like Skokey's avatar!! They've played at Red Sox games before and they are scheduled to play at the Avalon Nightclub on Boston's Landsdown Street nightly 3/16 - 3/19. (That's why we could only get them for happy hour!!) Here's their website...
<<<DROPKICK MURPHY'S>>>
From the website....
"Dropkick Murphys formed in 1996 in Boston, MA. The band was originally just a bunch of friends looking to play music for fun. We started playing in the basement of a friend's barbershop and our goal was to blend the musical influences we had grown up with (Punk Rock, Irish Folk, Rock, and Hardcore) into one loud, raucous, chaotic, and often out of tune mix that we could call our own.
To our surprise people seemed to liked it and we began to record music and tour constantly. To date we have released over ten singles, two EP CD, and four Full Length albums and have had the good fortune of being able to play across a large portion of the world. We are truly grateful to the many friends and bands that have helped us out and supported us along the way in the US, Canada, Europe, U.K. Ireland, Scandinavia, and Australia as well as the many countries we look forward to playing in the next century.
The bands' main goal is to play music that creates an all for one, one for all environment where everyone is encouraged to participate, sing along, and hopefully have a good time. In the true spirit of punk rock we view the band and the audience as one in the same; in other words our stage and our microphone are yours.
In addition to hopefully bringing people together for a good time, we hope to share some of our experiences and beliefs in working class solidarity, friendship, loyalty and self- improvement as a means to bettering society (i.e. You can preach till you're blue in the face but if you're lying in the gutter no one's gonna listen. If you pick yourself up by the bootstraps and live your life to the best of your ability you may set an example that others will follow)."
THE POWER OF YOUR EXAMPLE IS FAR GREATER THAN WHAT YOU SAY!
Thanks for the support!
Dropkick Murphys
:( :(

P.S. - You don't have to wait until 4:00 Friday to show your face. The band will be showing up for sound check at some point, and we need help decorating .....and cooking the corned beef and cabbage.
