flogging molly

i remember the first time i heard flogging molly.
i actually bought the cd on the basis of the name alone - didn't really care if they were good or not just the name alone had a good ring to it.

how was i to know that i was going to get a kick in the gut and a slap on the back of my head. i felt like the first time i heard the pogues album rum sodomy and the lash - here was again the melding of punk and traditional celtic music and i liked it.

song of the day is 'laura' and is dedicated to everyone who's valentine's day was one thinking about the love they used to have.
