The accordian player Matt Hensley is a pro skater but the dude skating in the video is Patrick Melcher

If you ever get a chance to see Flogging Molly live, do it 100% percent. Absolutely one of the best live performances I've seen.

Saw them with Dropkick Murphys a few years back. Met a couple members of Flogging Molly at the after party. They both put on one hell of a show, both are 100% worth seeing.

It's super fun whenever they have to go into a song that has a lot of addition instrumentation (like bagpipes, accordion, flute, etc.) and suddenly there's like 8 or 9 guys up there on stage all performing xD Love Flogging Molly and Dropkick too. High recommendations.

Boondock Saints is a classic, gotta watch it! Even though actual Irish people will savagely make fun of the fake Irish accents of the two lead characters. One of the lead characters is from Florida, and the other was born in Louisiana and raised in Texas. So, an authentic Irish accent obviously doesn't come easy for them. 😅

The Fiddle and Violin is the same instrument. the difference is in the technique used to play it

With folk and country it's called a fiddle. With an orchestra it's called a violin. Same exact instrument. I live in Kentucky where bluegrass is king and it came from Ireland!

not the same instrument. a fiddle is generally smaller than a violin

@@jishani1 You have no idea what you're talking about.

You've never seen Boondocks Saints?! Ash...enlighten him! ❤

The singer, Dave King, was lead singer for the 80’s Metal Band Fastway. Their songs “Float” and “If I Ever Leave this World Alive”, are awesome, and lyrically beautiful. The video for float is amazing. The “Hay Bale Sessions” acoustic version of “If I Ever Leave this World Alive”, is sweet. 🍀

I was friends with Matt Hensley, the accordionist, in the early to mid '90s when he lived in the Chicago area. Felt proud of him when Flogging Molly formed. Such a great band.

"We'd skate all day, skate to the pub, have pints, skate to the venue for the show and have to check our boards like they were bags" that's it. That's the experience of skating in your twenties in the mid aughts lmao. "I know I can hit this darkslide but I'm too fuckin tilted from the Jamo shots to land it" edit: I still wear a flatcap though. Always have, always will. Buchanan colors no less

Just saw them again a couple of weeks ago. They always put on a fun show!

One never watched Boondock Saints, and the other never listened to Flogging Molly. Are you sure you two aren't Brits? 🤣😂🍀

Well now, we definitely need to see Ash react to "What's Left of the Flag"! One of their best tunes. Either that, or you could go deeper and get into the super sea shanty zone with "Seven Deadly Sins" or "Tobacco Island".

Can you get a DUI, or the UK equivalent, on a skateboard? 😅

Have you listened to, or seen Dropkick Murphys? You'll love them.

They talk about Shipping Off to Boston, so I'm assuming that the answer is yes. And yes, Dropkick are _very_ awesome.

Nice, "To Youth" by Flogging Molly is another great hit!

My favorite flogging Molly song is “devils dance floor”, they have some really good story songs

Saw Flogging Molly last year. I'm more of a casual fan with this being my favorite song of theirs, so I only planned to stay for like half of their set. I ended up staying the entire set because it was so good! They put on a great show and bring all the energy

I forgot about this era were those ultra Boston bands got really popular for a while. Flogging Molly, The Dropkick Murphys, Till Tuesday, The Mighty Bostones.

I just saw them live a couple of weeks ago for the first time here in NY. Although, I got a bit fucked up in the moshpit (I'm 37...too old), it was an AWESOME time haha.

Favorite Flogging Molly song is "The Rare Ould TImes"

Hi you 2 funny people my favourite couple on u toob 😂😂❤❤❤

Loved your reaction. I was a useless skater back in -77. Crappy handstands and like. Now im a 60 y.o, walkin with crotches. I should have kept on skating hehe😊t... luv your chanel, keep on please. Greetings from Jonas Gothenburg Sweden. Ps. Where are you fromma

If I Ever Leave This World Alive is the song to check out

Matt Hensley influenced my early skateboarding. H-Street I’d go bombing a a hill with you Dave.

Great reactio. For a contrast you should check out the singer's old band Fastway - Say What You Will. He formed it in the 80's with the bass player from UFO, guitar player from Motorhead, and the drummer from Humble Pie. AMazing band. He also has another project called Katmandu that was really great also.

HOORAYYYYYYYYYYY

OB Dave looks like the skateboarder.

Guys, how could you do St Paddy's without a Pogues reaction? Or at least the Dubliners.

If you two want a funny song, try Ray Steven's "I'm my own grandpa "...

The skateboarder looks like American Dave...js.

Hiberno-Americans love this shit... well... this one does?

I mean... Dave's stories are kinda accessibly punk...

the group of dudes on a scooter is pretty odd to see for me. in the US scooters are kind of seen as the lame version of motorcycles. You definitely wouldn't seen a bunch of dudes out together on them over here. Scooters are usually some hipster thinking its cool or someone who REALLY wants to save on fuel. You definitely won't see scooter riders portrayed as "cool" like you do in this video.

RE:::::::::SAD THE POGUES SHOULD BE HEARD ONLY REAL IRISH!!!!!! RIP SHANE!!!! SHAME ON YALL DO IR PROPER..........EVEN HIS SOLO STUFF THE SONG WITH NO NAME IS MY FAV EVER BY HIM N FAV POGUES DIRTY OLD TOWN!!!
