Seated, all ages

One of the most beloved punk-inspired bands in the world will be bringing their live show to The Joint at the end of summer 2010.

From meager beginnings playing all-ages matinees at now-defunct Boston clubs to a prominent placement in Martin Scorsese’s Academy Award-winning film, “The Departed”, the Dropkick Murphy’s have evolved over the past decade into one of the most beloved punk-inspired bands in the world. Now, with The Meanest Of Times, their sixth studio album of spirited, cathartic and heartfelt anthems, the oft-cherished seven-piece outfit has also launched its own record label, Born & Bred Records, as a means to bring new DKM music to the world while assuming full control of their destiny.

As evidenced by the explosive, uncompromising and downright brilliant album-opener, “Famous For Nothing” and the set bowing, optimistic roar of Never Forget, The Meanest Of Times is book-ended in top form and captures among its fifteen tracks what founding bassist Ken Casey calls “themes of childhood, growing up and family”.

Note for tonight's show: please remember that due to security checks to enter the venue tonight, you should arrive early and please leave all metal objects at home or in your vehicle. You will not be allowed to enter the venue with any metal objects (or anything else deemed to be a public safety issue).
