Real McKenzies / USA Kilts Kilt Night in Philly

**RockyR** · 8th June 12, 09:26 AM

I know this is VERY short notice, but the Canadian band "The Real McKenzies" (think Dropkick Murphys, but Canadian, not American and Scottish instead of Irish songs) will be playing in Philly this Saturday. I'll be going with a few customers. If you're into Celtic Punk music and you're in the Philadelphia area, try to make it out. They don't tour the East Coast of the US too often (mostly Europe, Canada and Left Coast US).

Here's the venue:

Hope to see some of you there!

If you ever have a band you want to see out here at Red Rocks, I'll take you up on that offer. I'll come out waaaaaay ahead. And I'll get to hang out with you...a duet of pleasures!

You're on. I'll buy the first round. There's a nice little bar in Idledale that I remember well. It's just down the road from my wife's Aunt. Maybe we can get Nighthawk to swing by too.

My wife and I go to Denver a few times per year. We're only about 400 miles away (though it seems like light years sometimes). She's a Denver native...used run the steps at RR for soccer practice! . Next time we go down there I'll shoot you a PM. Probably Mid-August. I look forward to hanging out with another kiltie for once. Heck, we don't even have to go to RR. Anything is cool.

BTW, I understand you're a Literature major. That's one of my dual majors!
