Angelic Upstarts - I'm An Upstart

Angelic Upstarts concludes Pretty Shitty Kjell festival at the club and make it brilliant. To summarize the festival, there's only one word, Great! Kjell Hell and Pretty Shitty Town made a marvelous work to make this happen.

When it was time for the Angelic Upstarts to get up so was the crowd was crazy and the guys in the band looked happier than ever, even the little me enjoyed the event. Got a chance to take some photographs for real when it was time for the last band to get up on stage and share some pictures from the gig also get you another song with the Angelic Upstarts.

Todays tune "I'm An Upstart” was released as a single 6 Apr 1979. This clip is Angelic Upstarts performing I'm an Upstart Morecambe 1997, notice the extra dancer they have :)

Angelic Upstarts - Solidarity

Pretty Shitty & Kjell Hell organize once again a festival here in Stockholm, two days on Fryshuset Klubben. Following the success of Cock Sparrer gig in spring 2010, so has Kjell Hell and Pretty Shitty Town joined forces, strange it would be otherwise after the commitment, happiness and total satisfaction as shown in connection with last gig out of both visitor, bands and staff. One thing is clear after that, Sweden has a punk scene and you are part of it! So for this year the festival expanded to two days and in a flash i got sold out, so unfortunately no more tickets available. That I will spend two days at this festival will be extremely interesting, actually looks forward to seeing Angelic Upstarts play tomorrow and they are involved in todays Tune Of The Day.

Dropkick Murphys - Going Out In Style

Dropkick Murphys are an Irish-American Celtic punk band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts. Their influences include Stiff Little Fingers, The Pogues, The Clash, AC/DC, and the Swingin’ Utters.

The band has made a name for itself as a result of its extensive worldwide touring, and its St. Patrick's Day weekend shows, which are held in and around Boston. The group is also famous for their patronage of the Boston Red Sox, Celtics and Bruins. Each year the band breaks house records when their live shows celebrating St. Patrick¹s Day go on sale. These shows are the peak of the band¹s touring calendar and every year fans from all over the world travel to Boston just for a chance to become part of this unique experience.

Todays tune ”Going Out in Style” is the title track from their latest and seventh studio album and was released on March 1, 2011.



Going Out in Style is a concept album and takes the band's own personal experiences and family folklore and roll them into the story of a fictional character named Cornelius Larkin. Going Out in Style traces the journey of Larkin, whether it's the Irish immigrant's first person account of his own wake or the band's in depth interpretation of his life and lineage throughout the album's lyrics. According to bassist/vocalist, Ken Casey, "Cornelius has passed on to the other side, and the album becomes a retrospective of his life”.

The album also features guest appearances by Bruce Springsteen, NOFX vocalist Fat Mike, Chris Cheney from The Living End and actor/comedian Lenny Clarke.
