Dropkick Murphys tour update and more, now posted!
As if headlining the 2005 Warped Tour 2005 wasn't enough to promote their acclaimed Warriors Code CD release, the DROPKICK MURPHYS are set to embark on their very own fall headline tour with a bunch of their hometown compatriots.
Dubbed the Boston Invasion Tour, it kicks off at the Marquee in Tempe, Arizona on October 10th and continues across the U.S. and into Canada through late November. A third and final Los Angeles show has been added to the Boston Invasion Tour. Friday October 14th - House Of Blues, West Hollywood CA with special guests Youth Brigade and The Dead Pets (from the UK)
This years Boston Music Awards took place on September 28th at The Avalon Ballroom. The DROPKICK MURPHYS received two awards this year: one for "Song of the Year" ("Tessie"), "and another award for "Outstanding Pop/Rock Band of the year."
Speaking of "Tessie," the Red Sox are in the post season and the band's classic fall baseball anthem is prominently featured in the just released Farrely Brothers DVD of Fever Pitch. So for those of you who can't enough of the Red Sox, and who loved this movie, we ask what better time than for "Tessie" and The DROPKICK MURPHYS to get everyone all fired up again!
