I saw Black 47 a couple of weeks ago at an Irish Festival. Outstanding, as always. In addition to the Irish and American influences, there's also a heave Reggae influence. While they definitely play a couple of Irish Republican original songs, they're not nearly as much a rebel band as, say, the Wolfetones (who I also like a lot).
Black 47's "Live in New York City" CD is one of my all-time favorites.

Dublin Irish Festival
Hi all,
Good to see so many Jig-Punk fans here... I love Flogging Molly (and for a great show, see them when they tour with the Mighty Mighty Bosstones), they're one of my favorite bands. Another great jig-punk band is the Prodigals, from New York. They're a little lighter and more melodious than the DKMs or FM, but they have some great musicians and the lead singer has a voice that could melt Cromwell's heart.
They (and FM) will be at the Dublin (Ohio) Irish Festival on August 5,6, and 7 - here's the music lineup for their "rock stage" there. I'll be there, hopefully working at the Utilikilts booth, and if that falls through for some reason I'll be there ANYWAY. I'll just have to pay to get in and I won't be getting kilt credits.
If any of you can be there, I'd love to meet up with you!
Jamie
