Anyone else surprised when they see that Flogging Molly is still touring? I don't know, maybe it's just me, but it seems that this horse should have been put out to pasture years ago.

What does a horse have to do with anything?

Fuck that, I'm not really into Flogging Molly and I don't own an album but come on! When does irish punk that you can fucking arseholed to on cheap cider or more approrpiratley guiness and jig around get old? I'd love to see them live.

I've seen them about a dozen times and it NEVER gets old. It's like one giant party, I hope they tour forever

Agreed, and Frank is a great opener for them.

Wow, another Frank Turner headline.

I like some of his music and when I met him in Grand Rapids last month he seemed like a good guy, but damn is his name on here a lot.

Before the article posted yesterday, I didnt see news posted about him for at least a week or 10 days. Thats a long time on here.

I don't get all the Flogging Molly hate.
They are excellent live.
The only problem is alot of the bro-dude types come out to their shows.
Which is the same case for Dropkick Murphys and everyone likes them.

Frank Turner touring with them means my boner is even bigger for this tour.
Actually, it means I'm going to see Frank Turner and kind of going to see Flogging Molly.

This. I wasn't planning on attending any dates from this tour until this announcement.

I dig Frank Turner and all, but his set might kill the energy of a FM show

These shows are full band shows, and Frank with a full band is FUCKING energetic.

Oh, nice. I've only seen him solo. Interested to see how that turns out. Too bad this tour is coming to LA (FM's hometown!!)

Excited for this tour, hittin up State College and Baltimore. I hope they get a good punk band as the other opening act.
