    Dropkick Murphy poster

    I saw a poster of DKM at a local store today, and I looked closer at it and saw the USA kilts logo on the kilt, which I wasn't surprised by, but also it was on the guys sporran (I think only 1 of them was kilted) and there seemed to be a square on the corner opposite of the logo patch that I swear looked like it said Kelly on it. Was that an intentional shout out to USAK and such? I don't have anywhere I could put a poster like that, but wondered if anyone here (ie, Rocky) had seen that one before.

    This poster?

    There are a couple posters with Scruffy up front in our kilt(s).

    The 'sporran' I made for him (as well as a kilt) was the FIRST thing he received from a fan after joining the band in 2003... a few months after we started our company. He wore it on top of his sporran for YEARS. Evantually, the sporran was so dirty and beaten up that he wanted a new one (which we made for him). He retired that kilt as well (which was EQUALLY as dirty)... The Scottish National Kilt (Semi Trad), 'Cloth Sporran' and a tin whistle he played are all 'retired' and are on display in our shop in a shadowbox.

    The shadowbox was made by a member up here (Verlyn Hayes... I forget his handle) for the retired kilt and gear.

    The patch on the other edge of the apron is a 'Remember Chicken Man' patch that he wears... Chicken Man was a friend of the band who passed on. They sell patches and t-shirts to raise money for a charity thatr Chickenman was involved with:

    While we DO get a lot of public 'nods' from Scruffy, the patch doesn't say 'Kelly'.

    It was a different poster, with the kilted guy in the front center holding some bagpipes to his side.

    it might have been this one http://www.planet-caravan.com/Dropki...R_p_2803.html#

    The kilt in that picture is the Scottish National kilt I have on the wall in my shop. It's the 'Chickenman patch' that you see on the 'left knee' of the kilt.

    Yeah, reading the chickenman story makes sense that is what I saw on the front, his last name could be mistaken for Kelly in the pic when I saw it.

    I would have bought it, but it doesn't fit in the decorating.

    That's why you need a 'man cave'.

    I have a cave. I'm scared to go in it. It's under my kitchen. Maybe if i get a full hazmat suit I might be able to clean it up... It does have this cool "alice in wonderland" type of door in it. I don't think the walls are near useful enough for a poster though, and I don't think the basement is near ready for much at this point, though it does have power outlets.
