The 9:30 Coffee Break - St. Patrick's Day Edition

Posted at 1:28 PM on March 17, 2009 by Steve Seel (2 Comments)

Being that St. Paddy's day is, after all, an American holiday, I thought it'd be fun to solicit requests for American bands featuring Irish ex-pats today. It seems a lot of folks were thinking along the same lines in their ideas.

1) Flogging Molly, "Screaming At the Wailing Wall"
2) Romantica, "Drink the Night Away"
3) Dropkick Murphys, "I'm Shipping Up to Boston"

What's cool is that so many folks requested local faves Romantica, who's frontman is Irish ex-pat Ben Kyle. Plus, it was also correctly noted by some that the local band Valet features the Ben's brother Robin Kyle as lead singer and lyricist.

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions! Tomorrow: hangover songs ...

Diana Ross, "Love Hangover" even though you may want 'a cure for this'.
