First! Yes God! I check back every 90 seconds

AlmostPunkEnough (May 9, 2007)

congrats.

DrewXFishy (May 9, 2007)

krum bums destroy!!

Someone (May 10, 2007)

krum bums are a great live band. i saw em in chicago last sunday with LCB. Street Dogs are always good live. Glad the Krum Bums are finally coming to STL.

AlmostPunkEnough (May 9, 2007)

sweet... 2 minutes ago i didn't have anything to do on July 7th, but now i do.

Torgo (May 9, 2007)

Yeah, I've ever gotten plastered and took the train to NYC to see the Street Dogs, I think it's time.

eastern_waste (May 9, 2007)

me neither, can't wait woo

notfeelingcreative (May 9, 2007)

Wow, this has been up for five minutes and no one has done it yet!

Someone (May 9, 2007)

One of the consistently great bands out there, it would only makes sense because my favorite DKM stuff was with Mike Mccolgan anyways to me I'm right.

notfeelingcreative (May 9, 2007)

Thank you.

Dante3000 (rich) (May 9, 2007)

These guys aren't very good live.
-Dante

Someone (May 9, 2007)

You are a joke account. Have you seen them play? They have got better and better every time I have seen em play. And how can you not love when they pull out a couple of Do Or Die era songs, fuck you Dante, this band rules.

Dante3000 (rich) (May 9, 2007)

Dude, it only makes sense because my favorite DKM stuff was with Al Barr.
-Dante

Someone (May 9, 2007)

That tells me so much about Dante.

P.S. Shut it.

Dante3000 (rich) (May 9, 2007)

Look, Dropkick Murphy's are one of the consistantly great live bands out there right now. My favorite DKM stuff was with Al Barr anyway, so it made perfect sense that the the New Dropkick Murphy's would be just as good, if not better and to me, I'm right. I see them whenever I can, can't wait for the new album
-Dante

Someone (May 9, 2007)

I don't know what "consistantly" means

Dante3000 (rich) (May 9, 2007)

Know what "joke" means?
-Dante

eastern_waste (May 9, 2007)

i was hoping for this

Someone (May 9, 2007)

McColgan is a poser.

Someone (May 9, 2007)

Left DKM to firefight because of 9-11, realized all of the propaganda that was said after 9-11 and decided to start another band, released 3 records on an independent label that has no connections to a major label I believe, toured the country over and over. Definitely a poser.

notfeelingcreative (May 9, 2007)

9/11? THat was at least three years after he left dropkick.

Someone (May 9, 2007)

9/11??? You are 12.

Someone (May 9, 2007)

Yeah I agree with the overall idea of what you're saying so I back you up 100%, but he left in 1998... so that's not 9/11.

But to clear up some of the talk out there... he didn't even leave to become a firefighter. He left because he wasn't into the music anymore and his heart wasn't 100% into. Then, after that he became a firefighter. Anyway, who gives a fuck... Mike McColgan is the coolest and most honest dude in Punk right now... and Street Dogs and DKM are two of the greatest bands ever to exist, so that's all that needs to be said.

Someone (May 9, 2007)

ok................

you're either 12 or the biggest bro at delta house.

Someone (May 9, 2007)

No connections to a major label? How high are you? These guys are about as honest punk as Good Charlotte.

Someone (May 9, 2007)

and how do you back up your bullshit comment, comparing Street Dogs to Good Charlotte?

Someone (May 10, 2007)

Because they try to come off as this honest working mans Punk band but it's a crock of shit. The band was created to become mainstream. Why do you think McColgan moved to LA? They're on a label that's a subsidiary of a major label. Even the first album that is on Crosscheck is funded by CMH who is a bunch of rich fat men. This shit just comes off really lame and boring.

Someone (May 10, 2007)

You sir, are a stupid, braindead, bitter, worthless motherfucker.

Did you really say the Street Dogs were formed to become mainstream? Have you heard some of the lyrics from the new album? Anti-government, anti-war, anti-propaganda, anti-bullshit. Example: "Sell it on the TV, they sell it to the press. They sell it to the right wing, sell it to the left. Make us believe what we say is the truth. Mr. Rendon, FUCK YOU for selling your lies." Do you hear any fucking mainstream bands calling out government employees, government officials, or right-wing Christians? No. So shut the fuck up.

This band is far beyond anything that could ever be mainstream. They speak their minds and know what they're talking about (Mike McColgan fought in the first Gulf War, so don't think that he can't back up his anti-war stance).... The bottom line is: Get off your fucking high horse and stop pretending you know everything when you don't know shit... AND TRY ACTUALLY FUCKING LISTENING TO AND KNOWING SOMETHING ABOUT A BAND BEFORE YOU PUT THEM DOWN... You fuckin' cocksmoker.

Someone (May 10, 2007)

Yeah, Green Day had an album attacking the government too. They're not mainstream either, yeah? Listen up kook, I know all about the band and I call 'em like I see 'em. Save your Irish Scally Cap dick draggin brass knuckle chest beating street punk bravado for someone else. I've heard every release of theirs by the way...

Someone (May 10, 2007)

no shit, marketing of rebellion anyone?

Someone (May 11, 2007)

you can go back to listneing to your emo now its okay,,,the grown-ups are talking now

Someone (May 15, 2007)

take McColgan's dick out of your mouth. Face it, you listen to the Punk equivalent of show tunes. Keep your dress on Mary.

Someone (May 11, 2007)

Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong

Someone (May 11, 2007)

Legendary punk rock singer who pens exceptional lyrics-yes
Poser-no

TheOneTrueBill (May 9, 2007)

One of the consistantly great live bands out there right now. My favorite DKM stuff was with Mike McColgan anyway, so it made perfect sense that the Street Dogs would be just as good, if not better and to me, I'm right. I see them whenever I can, can't wait for the new album

This was getting to be like a BlinkRules thread or something.

Someone (May 11, 2007)

Loving it!

Someone (May 9, 2007)

Have the Tossers played shows with Flogging Molly?

Someone (May 9, 2007)

Tossers > Ireland > poo > Flogging Molly

Someone (May 9, 2007)

As far as I can remember, they've played together a bunch of times... Unfortunately, I never got to one of those shows. That's gotta crazy.

Someone (May 22, 2007)

They played with Flogging Molly and the Bosstones like 4 years ago. Wasn't terribly impressed with them the first time I saw them, but I've been listening for a while and they aren't bad

Someone (May 9, 2007)

Blood Moon Howlers SUCK! roflrofl

Ike_Ness (May 9, 2007)

Can't wait.

This tour should be called Weapons of Bass Destruction, or something else with a clever drinking title...

Dante3000 (rich) (May 9, 2007)

Weapons of Mass DeDrunken.
Inebriation's on the March.
Using Beer Tactics to control the population
Drunken Accomplished
Mission A-Krunk-lished
The Beerers of Freedom
Keeping our soldiers strong, and drunk
21 Shot Salute
The Irish Car Bomb Tour

Someone (May 9, 2007)

Street Dogs fucking rule...... Best band live I have seen in a very very long time.

For all you other Assholes out there saying shit about Mike joining the BFD because of 9-11 Your a year too late he joined around 2000 or in '99.

TC

Someone (May 9, 2007)

Amen.

ashtraymonument (May 9, 2007)

huzzah!

GlassPipeMurder (May 9, 2007)

freakin sweet tour. love all these bands. might have to make the trek to mn.

Someone (May 9, 2007)

nu-streetpunk sucks. krum bums, monster squad, complete control, casualties, unseen, yuck! so overproduced and boring

Torgo (May 9, 2007)

Most of the recordings of those bands sound like shit. Overproduced??

Someone (May 11, 2007)

Wrong..properly produced,there is kind of a difference but trainspoters don't know bout that sort of thing

Someone (May 9, 2007)

street dogs are alright and i love the tossers, but krum bums are terrible. they're like total chaos, but maybe worse. maybe.

jt (May 9, 2007)

oh yeah im hittin up the boston date

Someone (May 9, 2007)

who cares? I see them in Leeds with Dead To Me in 2 weeks. Much better than apearing with the Tossers

Someone (May 9, 2007)

I completely agree. The Tossers are cool, but fuck... Street Dogs/Dead To Me has to be one of the most unbelievable experiences a human being can take part in without passing out from excitement... Well, for me at least.

baseball (May 9, 2007)

awesome

both new releases from Street Dogs and The Tossers are excellent, this is gonna be a great show

i'll be at the Baltimore date

Someone (May 11, 2007)

True

Someone (May 9, 2007)

of course

no fucking pittsburgh date

WainscottRockCity (May 10, 2007)

Boston Accents > Fake Irish Accents > Shitty Screams

Someone (May 11, 2007)

Three critically acclaimed releases,relentless live show,good to fans,better than ninety nine percent of the so called punkbands today,etc

GENERALJimmyPop (May 10, 2007)
