Flogging Molly

I ve never seen security put on gloves before, I told the girl next to me as I watched the ten security personal standing between me and the stage pull on gloves and bite down on mouth guards Saturday night. What? No riot helmets? Well, I guess they had heard that Flogging Molly was in town to bring their little piece of Ireland to the Southside Ballroom in Dallas, Texas seven days before St. Patrick s Day. Well, this was my fifth Flogging Molly show, but I didn t think to bring a mouth guard. Oh well, just keep your knees bent and don t wear open toe sandals. However, I will bring up a little praise for opening act Jon Snodgrass and opening to the opening act, The Dirty Old One-Man Band, Scott H. Biram who nailed me right in the forehead with his guitar pick. Flogging Molly took the stage with lead singer Dave King hoisting up his ever-present can of Guinness, and suddenly the band dove into THE HAND OF JOHN L. SULLIVAN off their new album. As the guitar, fiddle, accordion, and mandolin blasted from the stage I suddenly felt strange hands along with other foreign body parts grabbing my shoulders and shoving up against my back. Yes, the party had started! Then guitarist Dennis Cassey dove into the opening rift of SWAGGER! Oh, I love this song! some girl next next to me screamed as she grabbed my arm, and we both screamed out the first words together in unison. And then with the next song SELFISH MAN we faced each other and screamed out that words, I ll never understand, why I m such a selfish man! Yes, I had found a bigger Flogging Molly fan than myself. Then after some serious head banging and jumping up and down not to mention a few high fives we sang/shrieked out the words to DRUNKEN LYALABYE followed by a few higher fives. Suddenly my attention was turned to some hefty, burly dude to my left who had pretty much collapsed on the rail. As the security guys tried to pull him over the rail I joined in and lifted up his legs to notice he was wearing a kilt. I m not sure if the rumor of what men wear under their kilts is true of not, but I wasn t asking or looking. After a quick fist bump with security, me and my new Flogging Molly bestie were back to harmonizing with the well-dressed guys on stage along with the horde of beer soaked slam dancers behind us. Grabbing my arm, she shrieked I love this song! as fiddle player, Bridget Regan pulled her bow across her fiddle sending the band into the song REQUIEM FOR A DYING SOUL. This of course gave us the opportunity to scream out the lyrics, Hear the shimmy and the shake from a futile war. Then again, I m not sure either one us really knew what we were saying. However, no words needed to be sang, screamed, or screeched as Flogging Molly s axe man, Dennis Cassey, dove into the guitar solo of BLACK FRIDAY RULE bending and hammering the strings of his Gibson Les Paul nearly a ten-minute solo. Once Dave King returned to his microphone though, me and my new Flogging Molly friend screamed out the words, Black Friday rules! like we were part of the band. My duet screaming partner wasn t the only female on hand for night. You re a tough chick! I said to the girl behind me who had been continuously slammed up against me throughout the concert. Then again, her nose ring told me that she wasn t one to shy away from self-inflicted agony. This conversation was cut short for my new bestie grabbed my arm again and screamed out, I love this song! Well, we love all these songs. That s why we submit ourselves to this kind of entertaining abuse. However, at the end of the show the feeling had drifted down to a mixture of relief and tranquility as the band all danced around the stage to the song that closes all their shows, and guitarist Cassey came down and high fived us all. That s rock and roll with an Irish twist!

Absolutely an amazing show, great view from anywhere in the venue They rocked !!

Flogging Molly has been on my bucket list for years. I missed them the last time they were in Calgary, but this show absolutely made up for it. The opening acts were fantastic and I found a new band that I'll be following! Radkey was phenomenal and got the crowd all pumped up for the headliner. Everyone was having an incredible time and you could feel the energy in the room. Flogging Molly was beyond what I was expecting. Their sound, stage presence, performance and energy were unreal. They played their hearts out for over 2 hours and did not disappoint. They were really interactive with the crowd and at the end some of the band members even came into the audience to meet their fans. My husband and I had the privilege of meeting Matt Hensley. He is my hubby's childhood skateboard hero and my accordion inspiration. If you ever get the opportunity to see a Flogging Molly show, don't give it up!!!

First off Fox Theater is amazing, great atmosphere, cool staff and great sound. The opening acts were so-so but Flogging Molly was absolutely jaw-dropping. Their energy is just amazing and they got the crowd into it with ease. Even came back out for a nice 2 song encore.

Hepcat and Flogging Molly really delivered, once again. What a fantastic show! Beautiful venue, too...

It was an amazing concert. Both openers were good and Flogging Molly is amazing in concert, almost sounding better then on record, in my opinion. They used a great playlist and it was an unforgettable experience.

A sea of emotion swept the crowd even before the start of the show with chants from the crowd. As Flogging Molly entered the roar of the crowd flushed through the ear drums and into your soul connecting everyone in the room. At the same time you are pushed forward by the full house behind you reaching ever closer for the stage just to be pushed back into the sea of people ranging from the youngster at his first show to seasoned veteran in his mid thirties. With each note the crowd grew more energetic and the bonds between people became strong making us a single entity. By the end of the show we were not many people but a single unanimous being cheering for more.

Man, I knew I loved to listen to Flogging Molly, but there is nothing like the EXPERIENCE of Flogging Molly! The sound was big! The energy incredibly high! The chit chat low...just song after song after song, some familar, some from way back, all now favorites! The quality of the music was great and the ecclectic personalities made for fun viewing. Would I go again? You bet your Guinness I would!

The Fox is an amazing venue as long as you overlook the rude bartenders in the den. Despite those d-bags the event was great and as always Flogging Molly put on an excellent show!

I've been a huge Flogging Molly fan since the instant I heard them, but this was my first time seeing them live. They ABSOLUTELY did not disappoint. Regarding the opening shows: I knew Hepcat was going to be golden, and I was completely pleasantly surprised by Fitz and the Tantrums. Flogging Molly is just the epitome of cool, they're rebellious, but not in an abrasive way. Just too good. SEE THEM LIVE WHENEVER YOU CAN!

The morning after. My feet hurts, my shoulder is blue, my throat is sore. Exactly the way it was meant to be!! Flogging Molly was amazing as always, and their acoustic version of The son never shines (on closed doors) was so beautiful.... :o)

This event was amazing. I went with my girlfriend, and we both enjoyed it so much. Flogging Molly is her favorite band, so this was especially great for her.

I'd never seen them before, and I'd heard there's always a party atmosphere on the concert floor, and they were right. It's like one giant drunken party on the concert floor and the people thrashing by the stage were way on the ball picking up those that got knocked over, which is always a plus. I hate non-friendly mosh pits, because it's really just not safe. If you like their music, drinking, dancing, or better all of the above, a Flogging Molly concert is a must! Oh, and the Fox Theater is beautiful and they have 6 bars just on the concert floor, almost no lines for drinks and everyone was drinking!

This was my first time at the Fox Theater in Oakland, CA. Beautiful venue, decent staff, and the sound was better than the last place I saw Flogging Molly about three years ago. The openers were great. What they lacked in popularity, they made up for in energy. Fitz & the Tantrums have kind of a fifties revival thing going on with their sound and clothes. And Hepcat was pure ska, I mean ORIGINAL SKA (not like Mighty Mighty Bosstones or Dance Hall Crashers). Both bands great performers. Flogging Folly was so awesome! They always deliver. Just an amazing performance from start to finish and they did two encore songs!

I loved the show. Wish the sound was a little better so you could hear the lyrics better but it was a truly amazing show. I am glad I went.

They were as tight as I've ever seen them. The crowd was lit up and the venue was perfect for the performance. The sound was justly blistering, loved it, ready to see the again. Flogging Molly tore it up!

Hep Cat (one of my favorite live bands) was amazing and so incredible to see at the Fox. It was a perfect venue for them and they make me smile and dance like few others. Flogging Molly ROCKED and sure did almost bring down the house! the crowd was a bit scary but as soon as I found myself away from most of the Moshers, I enjoyed myself. The Fox seems to be a venue where one has to figure out where to stand for the best sound....still very loud and echoey.

Absolutely a blast....great Irish rock band in the Pogue style...beautiful theatre, great music...what more could you ask for?

Loved the show! The band rocked as usual and even did some acoustic numbers.

Flogging Molly did not disappoint!! Dave King was lively and engaging..the music was amazing..we had a great time!!

Not your best example of the genre but, a good time. Lead singer talks too much! Hepcat was amazing, as usual!

I have now been to nine (9) Flogging Molly concerts - EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM WAS AMAZING! They bring great energy, hopping music, and a lot of fun! The singer, David King, has been in the music industry for years (was in Fastway years ago). He is from Ireland and brings a lot of Irish attitude to the band. Any time they are in an area I can get to their concert, I do. A few things you need to know before you go: 1) Do not get near the front or large crowd, within two notes of their first song, the majority of the place becomes a moshpit! 2) If you are offended easily by cussing, don't go - not to mention, you probably shouldn't even listen to the band! 3) Stay after the concert. Usually Dennis, Nathan, and Bob come back out and come out into the crowd to thank their fans. LOVE Flogging Molly - one of the bands that is very interactive with their fans and the crowds that come to listen to them! I can't wait to hear their newest album live!

I first saw Molly open up for the Bosstones back in late 90's, early 2000's. They blew me away the moment they hit the stage. Saw them like 8 times since then. The adrenalin, power and entertainment is still as pure today as it was back then. From the second they hit the stage, the crowd starts jumping and the pit starts dancing. Great night and a great show!!! If you haven't seen them before. Make sure you do. You won't regret it. Slainte

All 3 bands were great, Mariachi El Bronx got the crowd warmed up, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones delivered a great set and had a marriage proposal on stage, and Flogging Molly put on one of the best shows i've ever seen!

All three bands put on amazing shows, despite bad weather. The downpours began just as Chuck Ragan took the stage and continued through the Frank Turner set. There was a brief respite before Flogging Molly, but then the deluge continued. Highlights from each were Meet Me in the Middle from Chuck, Recovery by Frank, and Salty Dog and Black Friday rules. I've been to a mixed GA/RESERVED show at the Maine State Pier before, and swore I'd never go back. GA was at the rear of the venue and I never even saw the band. This was full GA, and was a huge improvement far as the experience was concerned.

Two of my favorite bands playing in the same show so it doesn't get much better. They both put on a great show. Can't say enough good things about the whole experience. Nice little amphitheater as well.

Loved the show!!! Love the Oakdale!! If you have never seen Flogging Molly or Frank Turner and The Sleeping Souls, DO IT!! So much fun!! Can't wait to see them again!!

To be honest, I had heard of Flogging Molly but knew none of their songs. I was just looking for a show in CLE on Sunday night, and Molly was at Nautica. I'm definitely glad I went and checked it out. I was pleased with the Celtic feel, the punkness, and the musicianship.

Flogging Molly always puts on an awesome show! Their openers were fantastic also - Chuck Ragan and Frank Turner & the Sleeping Souls. This theater is awesome and San Diego's weather is perfect for this. Easy to take the MTS trolley and cheaper than parking there and much closer. Outstanding performances by all!

I was amazed by the energy and quality of Flogging Molly's performance. It isn't often that you find a band as good, if not better, than the album. Made a very happy and memorable night for me and my dad.

Without a doubt one of the greatest live bands out there!

Yet another amazing Flogging Molly show! Opening band, Askultura, was fantastic! Would love to see them again! The venue under the stars was awesome! Love Jannus Live! The security was great! Very hard workers! The bars & restaurants around the area were wonderful, especially Burrito Border! Needless to say, BEST NIGHT EVER!

Great show!!! The openers were fantastic and Flogging Molly was ten times better!! One of the best shows I've seen in my million years as a fan!!!! Loved it!!!

I had been wanting to see Flogging Molly for years, but always seem to find out too late. I was thankful to catch them this time and it was a great concert. I was not disappointed. Nathen even hung out with the fans after the show. Very cool.

Gogol Bordello and Flogging Molly together was fantastic! My only regret was that I ran out of energy lol. Marischi el Bronx was great also. I hadn't heard them previously but they went well with the tour and did an.Amazing job.

This is my third time seeing Gogol Bordello, and each time is just as exciting, original and energetic as the last! GB is one of those bands that just comes alive when you see them live. Even some people that had never seen them or even heard of them before are now converts to the Gypsy Punk Revolution after seeing them! Mariachi El Bronx was a very pleasant surprise for me. I'd never heard of them before and I'm happy to say they didn't disappoint me either! Unfortunately, I couldn't stay for Flogging Molly, but I'm told they were good too, but not as spectacular as Gogol Bordello were. Overall, I'd definitely go again and plan on doing so next time they come!

On the hottest day of the summer, we ventured to an outdoor concert! Despite the heat we had a blast - the drinks were cold, the people were friendly, the lawn seats were in the shade and the bathrooms were air conditioned HEAVEN. You can see and hear great from every angle of the venue, so lawn seats were a good savings. Gogol Bordello was off the chain fantastic! The energy they had on a 101 degree afternoon was boundless!! I will see them every time! Flogging Molly was incredible. The personality of that band and their flawless music make them show stoppers each time. I cannot recommend these bands or this venue and higher! Also, because they weren't sold out, staff offered to let us move into the seating area before Flogging Molly. Champs.

As always, they put on a stupendous show! I am so happy I got to see them this year, as I missed them at the Ritz last year. They have been one of my favorite bands for over a decade and couldn't imagine a better venue to have seen them in!

Flogging Molly is an awesome band. Every show I've seen is better than the last. As a member of the crowd you're part of the show. Everyone sings, everyone dances. Their shows never disappoint.

Flogging Molly is always a great band to see, and this is a fantastic venue in which to see them. The music was great. The moshing was great. This is one band that is always a delight to see.

The palladium is one of the best venues to see a show in Southern California and Flogging Molly is one of the best bands anywhere. They always bring so much energy and excitement but this show was one of the best I've ever seen. Perhaps it was because it was St. Patrick's Day, perhaps it was because they were fresh off the Salty Dog cruise, or perhaps it was because they just played a great setlist, but I've seen them at least 10-15 times and this was definitely one of the best.

We had such a good time - I can't remember a time when I had more fun!

flogging molly, enough said...............\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026

My first time at the State Theater AND seeing Flogging Molly. What an INCREDIBLE show!! Great opening acts (Pasadena & The Mighty Stef) got the crowd moving and ready for more. Flogging Molly hits the stage and just BLEW me away! The talent and energy of this band is incredible! FM's front man, Dave King, has an amazing voice and REALLY knows how to play to the crowd. He clearly enjoys what he does (why do it otherwise?) and makes the effort to interact with his audience and make sure WE know how much HE (and the rest of the band) appreciate our being there. By far one of the best concerts I have EVER attended!

The band played phenomenally, and sang a bunch of favorites. They were very engaged with the crowd and the lead singer has such a great sense of humor. I'd attend one of their concerts again in a heartbeat.

I have liked Flogging Molly for many years. This was the first time I saw them perform live. They didn't disappoint. The energy level was amazing. I will go see them again.

High energy show, both the band and the crowd. Band interacted with the audience through the entire show. Great music! Great band! Great time!

The band put on a show that is not to be missed. The music was amazing they infused the crowd with energy and joy.

Flogging Molly was great as alway! The National is a great venue was easy to find, free, and accessible parking on 7th street. If you like fast paced high energy music and a rowdy concert Flogging Molly is the best there is. Also, the Pasadena band (opening band) is one of my new favorites and is worth giving a chance. Would see them on their own.

Billed as the Tenth and final round of their annual Green 17 tour this show firmly established Flogging Molly as one of top bands to see live. The set covered some of their best known work, such as Drunken Lullabies and Black Friday Rule, but they also played some material I have not heard live in many years (if ever) Us of Lesser Gods UV particular was awesome to hear. The Likes of You Again and Life in Tenement Square were fantastic to hear again. I have these guys every time they have come through Dallas for the last ten years, once at the now defunct Gypsy Tea Room, every show has been outstanding. They always have good opening acts to support them as well.

Stellar performance! FM put on one helluva show. The music and crowd were amazing. The venue was the perfect size for everyone to have a good view. The staff at HOB was professional and stayed out of the way.

I think they just get better with age. This is my 15th time or so seeing them live and even though the venues get bigger and the crowd get larger they always now how to be sure everyone has a great time. It doesn't matter that it's not the type of music you would usually listen to, if you go to an FM show and walk away without having enjoyed yourself, then there is something majorly wrong. I have been, and will be, an FM fan forever. Slainte!

I love Flogging Molly, this show was my first and it was great! I heard all the song I hoped to hear and some. The only regret I have is not getting better tickets. The only complaint I have is in regards to the seats, the rows are to small and so are the seats but when Flogging Molly came on the seats didn't matter. Great show!

I love Flogging Molly, they're my favorite band. Every year I look forward to them coming to Chicago and I do everything I can to attend. Seeing them live is indescribable, and this year, I have to say it was the best I've seen (save for when I saw them in South Carolina two years ago at a smaller venue so it felt a bit more personal. Got to be right up front and avoid the moshing and even talk to Nathan!) They love to joke with the audience and always have a positive energy. I love how they'll dance around stage and at the end of the show, they always play "Always Look On the Bright Side of Life", which they sing and dance around to on stage too. If you love Flogging Molly, but have never been to a concert, GO! They sound 100 times better live! This was the last Green 17 Tour, but they'll be doing other concerts and I can't wait to see them again! Age group: They swear quite a bit, so it's not for the younger ones, but I saw a lot of older people in the crowd; parents went with their teenagers and were dancing around too! Drinking: Beer prices are a little high and just know there's going to be cups thrown around, sometimes with liquid still in them.

The entire performance of Flogging Molly was amazing, fantastic, and unforgettable! They are fantastic live, and I would love to see them again if they go back on tour! ♡♥

Flogging Molly never ceases to amaze me in concert! This was my third concert (and not last!) and they just out do themselves each and every time! Since this is their last tour for awhile, they played a lot of songs they haven't in awhile, and did some acoustic songs as well. As a true fan, this was amazing and unforgettable!!! This band puts on the best show of anyone I've ever seen! The opening acts were great as well! I LOVE THE DROWING MEN! Flogging Molly is the most talented band I've ever known, and it's amazing to be in their presence!

Flogging Molly put on a great show. This being the last ever Green 17 tour, they played a lot of older hits. They also played to the fact that it was the last "rock" type show at Roseland Ballroom before it closes.

Every time I have been to the House of Blues I've had a great time. The 10th Annual Flogging Molly Green Tour blew every other concert out the door! The amount of positive energy resonating from the crowd cannot be duplicated outside of Boston! Lenny Lashley's Gang of one, The Drowning Men, and Flogging Molly were complete perfection. Such an amazing night. Thank you

Got up on stage and pit just went nuts. As soon as they hit off the first song the pit was still going nuts! David King is an excellent performer, before and after a song! So happy I got to hear them live thinking beforehand they only played in the West Coast. Man a cool painting for the band however couldn't get it into the show. Thanks for the memories!

I have missed the last 9 Green 17 tours, but this show, being their last of this type was amazing! The energy was incredible!

Flogging Molly is one of the greatest touring groups ever and they did not disappoint at one of their favorite venues, the Norva! Pasedena and Drowing Men opened and did well, but the crown was waiting for the headliners. They played two solid hours, rocked us all with their Irish Punk, then hung out with the crowd long after the concert. Looking forward to their next CD and hoping their hiatus is not too long!

The show was wicked rad! Flogging Molly never disappoints when they come to town and I recommend everyone see them live! The venue was decent. The stage could sit a little higher for those in the back to see the band better but overall the sound was excellent. The first opener didn't really have me in the beginning but by the end of their set I really enjoyed them. The second act put me to sleep.

This was an awesome show! Flogging Molly always has great energy. And the Tragically Hip flat out rock! Overall this was a good experience. Parking was cheap and so were the drinks (compared to other venues that we have been to). And, the traffic leaving was much better this time compared to the last Hip concert at the outer harbor.

I've seen them a few times but this was an awesome venue and they gave an amazing show as usual!

My first expirence ever with The Flogging Molly? Wanted to leave when I heard the opening act, They were Horrible, But I'm glad I stayed, Flogging Molly was GREAT and I will go back despite the disappointment before them, I sure hope they find someone better before they return to stage.

Amazing performance by all three bands. It was completely unexpected. I originally thought that the 2 bands prior to Flogging Molly would be a bust, but I WAS WRONG and became a new fan of 2 bands I have never heard before and plan to buy their albums for my collection. THANK YOU everyone for an excellent night to talk about for years to come.

This show was phenomenal. Flogging Molly never cease to amaze me. If you haven't seen them and are able to, DO NOT pass up the opportunity.

Flogging Molly is incredible hands down, especially live. I come every year to this show and will continue for years to come. "Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess, singing drunken lullabies"

Great Show. Flogging Molly was amazing. Skinny Lister was great.

I've been to a few concerts in my time but this concert was hands-down the best. Dave Hause did a good job of warming the crowd up. Skinny Lister was up next, a British band with a solid selection of sea shanties. Having not heard of them prior to the show, their live set was amazing! They had great energy, and were all about some crowd interaction; I lost a contact while the bassist (with his stand-up base) was cross-surfing. Flogging Molly closed it down...if you have never seen them live, do so. My only regret is that they didn't play Black Friday Rule.

Great setlist from across their whole collection. Was dragging at work Wednesday, but was worth every minute. Flogging Molly gives you a great show every time.

The show was great, Opening at Skinny Lister a band I never heard before was great. Flogging Molly did a long set and played a good variety of songs from their various albums.

Skinny Lister blew me away! They were great and will definitely look for their shows in the states. Flogging Molly was epic! My first time seeing them and it will not be my last!

Great show from start to finish! The crowd was crazy all night and I got to meet the band after the show!

Great show. Flogging Molly is so flogging loud....

The venue was wonderful with great parking. The Brothers of Brazil were not to my liking but both Flogging Molly and The Devil Makes Three were absolutely fabulous! The energy was great and the set list was perfect. I will definitely see them again!

The band was upbeat and fun. Sounded fantastic!! Definately will see again. They kept the crowd going the whole time!

Ive seen this band every time they come to Houston. They put on the most amazing live show! You may go into this concert unsure about how you feel about them, but when you leave, you will know you stumbled onto a band that you will never forget! They love what they do and it shows every time they play! I recommend this band to anyone young or old! If you love music that makes your feet wanna never stop moving and your ears left wanting more, this is your band!

I've seen Flogging Molly live 3 times and every time has been amazing. This time, however, beat it all! I'm usually not a big fan of opening acts, but I literally fell in love with the two opening acts and have been actively downloading their music ever since! Then FM hit the stage- they played a bunch of old songs from their first two albums as well as a few new ones I haven't heard before. They're always so much fun to see live and this time was literally the icing on the cake. The band is so nice and loving of their fans, it feels like they're still a small town band. I adore these guys and if you've got the means, go see this tour!

Flogging Molly was one of the best shows that I've seen in years.

When the first shower of beer hit me, I knew I was in for an awesome show. Opening with the ever popular Drunken Lullibies, Floggy Molly hit the stage with a vengeance. And the crowd was ready for it. After standing in an hour long line and sitting through two passable opening acts, the natives were getting restless. I have not moshed since, well never mind, but I fell right into it. Loved it so much! Would totally go again!

Amazing...High energy...good people...beautiful poetry filled music...amazing talented musicians...great crowd...nice event staff....best time ever...best show I've ever seen:)

ok so i got into a fight lost a friend bruised my palms (didnt know that was possible) and overall had one of the best nights!!!!!! This band is AMAZING live!!! and if you ever get the chance to see them do it!!!! you wont be disappointed!

The show was great. High energy band with a super long set. 4th show from them and have never been disappointed.. My only let down of the night was the 2nd band "the Architects" seemed a little too hard for the night, didnt seem to mesh well with the other groups.

The bands before them were pretty decent. Synthetic Element was very enjoyable and I had a good time rocking out to them. The other band was the Architects and I didnt enjoy them nearly as much. But all went to the back of my mind when Flogging Molly walked onto the stage. The experience was like nothing i have ever been in. My friends and I managed to get to the front and were barely able to survive some of the mosh pits and crowd surfs. At one point in the show some man ran from backstage and tried to jump in the crowd, resulting in a painful looking crash. The crowd was electric, the band was unforgettable, and if you dont see them live, then your missing out.

If you only get to see one show next year see Flogging Molly, They are hands down the Greatest Live act touring today.

OMG!!! I just love their music,but their live show was amazing!!!! I took my son for his birthday.. we danced the whole time,sang every song,& we just had a great time~ hell of a show~and we can't wait to see them again!!!

My husband and I attend every Flogging Molly show that is in our area. Of course, they were awesome!!! The electric factory is one of our favorite venues to see a show. This event was no exception!

Flogging Molly is incredible...this is the best value going. FM fans who are not familiar with Frank Turner should definitely check him out pre-show too..he is incredible and made this one of the greatest shows ever. Check out the Road and Worse things Happen at sea on You tube - View live versions as studio releases will not do justice. I was blown away and enjoyed almost 4 hours of music.

As always, Flogging Molly brought the house down at the Norva, in Norfolk. Dave was more hoppy than usual, extra animated, and had some great drunken music faces! He always cracks me up and keeps me screaming and clapping! Bridget's whistle solos were so amazing! Everyone had lots of love! The pit was insane and the show was sold out. People were packed to the walls. A few folks crowd surfed, but mostly just a lot of slam dancing and moshing. Of course, Nathan is always my favorite of the band and didn't disappoint. He gets so into the music, with his eyes closed, just feeling it unlike a lot of artists around today. He's definitely one of the best bassists alive and inspired me as always to go home and play my bass! All in all, probably one of the best shows I've seen them do here. They make me proud to be Irish!!

What a great show! Frank Turner was execllant, The Architects were okay, trying to overpower the audience rather than use their musical talents more. flogging Molly, as usual, were amazing! Still one of my favorite live bands Ihave ever seen!

Flogging Molly rocked it! No questions asked, one of the best shows I have been to at HOB. The opening acts, The Architects and Frank Turner, were also great. Both bands put on a great show and had the crowd going by the time Flogging Molly took the stage. I had a blast!

FM continues to be the best live act out there bar none. A nearly flawless 2hr set with alot of acoutical takes and some oldies but goodies they haven't played in awhile making the list. There opening acts were very good, The Architects got the place jumping right off the bat and Frank Turner was an amazing second act. I will keep an eye out for when the next time he comes through Houston.

I took my daughter and her cousin to the Flogging Molly concert for her birthday and had a blast! When Flogging Molly hit the stage they were energized, playing with amazing precision. They put together a set list that spanned thier entire music history as well as the entire Float album. The best was when they played my daughters favorite song for the last song during thier encore. One of the best concerts I have been to. I will see them again!

I couldn't believe how great that show was, im still dumbfounded and its been about 24 hours. the bands that they chose to open were defenitly different but very entertaining, especially Hepcat and how they got everyone moving! When Flogging came out they laid out a good 11/2 hour - 2 hour set and jsut played each song one right after the other. i was just blown away how awesome they were!! Hope they come around again soon!

After the opening band, Hepcat got everyone moving. Flogging Molly came out and played an excellent set. They ended up playing a lot of stuff off of the album "Float". They followed up their already generous set with and encore. Afterwords some of the members of the band (Dennis, Nathen, and Bob) came out to the crowd to talk, take pictures and sign things for the grateful fans. Flogging Molly has got to be the most upbeat and down-to-earth band that I've seen go that big.

Marymoor is a great venue. Flogging Molly with Hepcat in a great venue is out of this world good! The played lots of stuff from Float, many songs they've never performed live before and most of the old goodies. There was lots of room to dance, the crowd was enthusiastic and easy going. The sound quality was really good and at appropriate levels. I can't recommend this venue or Flogging Molly enough.

The band went on and the place came alive. Though the weather was overcast no one seemed to mind when the music started and everyone got up to dance to the songs. Great job guys and gals. Keep it up. A new Fan ;)

Will definitely be seeing them again. They put on an amazing show with so much energy.

The venue was kind of odd being tables and floor. The show was absolutely incredible. This band is one of a kind and entertaining to say the least! If you haven t seen flogging Molly crawlmout from that rock and check em out!! Best show I ve seen in awhile! Goosebumps!
