This past March Boston rockers The Dropkick Murphys released a brand new live CD/DVD Combo “Live in Landowne.”
The concept developed as an “attempt to share the St. Patrick’s Day shows with those of us who haven’t witnessed the holiday with the Murphys.” It was recorded during a seven-show run in Boston in 2009. The final performance features an epic guest appearance by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones for the smash hit “I’m Shipping Up To Boston.”
