Best Music to Booze to

[Phirefighter]

Flogging Molly or Dropkick Murhpys, Both of which are here in the next 3 months.

I was totally going to go see the dropkick murphys on st pattys day in boston, but tickets were thirty dollars plus service charge. no thanks.

I'd rather buy some green beer.

Dropkick ON their stomping grounds is one of the best shows you'll ever see. They aren't going to be playing live much longer, a little birdie told me Mike's voice is giving.

Damn, that's pretty cheap compared to ticket prices around here. I wish I could afford to take Goose for an early b-day present . . . tickets are cheap enough but it would cost us a lot to get to and stay in Boston.

Skip the Dropkicks, catch the Street Dogs instead. The DKM's glory days are behind them.

The one song I know I'll hear when I catch up with my friends tonight is Whiskey by the Lucky Scars. And look, there's a video:

I'm the fat bastard with the black framed glasses, by the way.

Too much Trader Jack in the video but the girl in the green mini dancing in the kitchen is hot.

Lucero probably romanticizes alcohol-soaked working-class futility to an unhealthy degree, and Ben Nichols is hardly the first blue-collar bard to look for a way out of a dead-end town at the bottom of a shot glass. But on the Memphis roots rockers' fifth album, Nichols' gritted tales, sung as if he's gargling bourbon and thumbtacks, often achieve a Springsteen-ish grandeur. Meanwhile, the band's restless, energetic twin-guitar assault, mingled with studio vet Rick Steff's piano, sells the drama without overplaying it. http://www.luceromusic.com

'All you have to do is follow three simple rules. One, never underestimate your opponent. Expect the unexpected. Two, take it outside. Never start anything inside the bar unless it's absolutely necessary. And three, be nice.'

My favorite drinkin' music is any corny metal from the 80's. I like to get loaded and dance around my living room like I was on Club MTV.

2 words:


HAIR METAL

[ivan]

DMB, Allmans, and Phish, when I'm feeling groovy-floaty.

Buffet, when I'm lazily sipping an afternoon away.

Chris Isaak, if I'm crying over loves lost and want to slit my wrists.

Ministry, if I'm aggro and looking for a fight.

CCR and the Stones, if it's a beer-drinkin' evening.

And so on... the music is a condiment to the booze and the mood. Oh, and if I want to hear fabulous musicianship and brilliant lyrics, Rush comes to mind.

'Course, Appetite for Destruction is always good, too...

Oh, yeah, &, my bride is using terms like "skinflint" and "pussy" for your refusal to pony up a Jackson and a Hamilton to see the DKM, on St. Paddy's, in Boston.

Something about "seminal experience" and suchlike.

[Hangover Heartattack]

Korpiklaani!!!!

I couldn't have said it any better myself.
