We wanted to take this opportunity to send out thanks again to everyone who came out to see us on our St Patrick’s Day tour which wrapped up in our home town of Boston last week. We had a great time at the shows & don’t even know where to begin to thank you all for your enthusiasm & support in helping make this such a successful & memorable tour. It might sound like a cliche but we couldn’t do it without you crazy bastards!
Just in case you didn’t see it, our performance on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson aired on St Patrick’s Day, here’s a link to watch it online.
We come on around the 35 minute mark.
A fan has posted just the performance portion of the show here
Also, we were excited to find out that the Australian Football League is using “I’m Shipping Up To Boston” as their theme song for the 2009 football season downunder. You can view the commercial here

We wanted to let everyone know there is a SUPER LIMITED AMOUNT of tickets available online & at the door for tonight’s show & some of the other shows this week.
This is due to a few factors including; some credit cards not being honored, tickets not being picked up or guests of the band who are unable to make it to the shows.
Please note; if there are tickets available you can access them online the DAY OF THE SHOW or if it is less than 2 hours before the show starts come to the venue & check with the box office.
If you’re looking for tickets please check with Ticketmaster & the box office BEFORE you buy tickets from scalpers or from online after market ticket sellers.
Thanks & we hope you enjoy the shows!
