Potential Flogging Molly Cruise!?!?
I got this email, it seems like a pretty cool idea if it was done right and it wasn't insanely expensive. Seems more like something Gene Simmons of
KISS would do though.
All Aboard, Flogging Molly Fans!!!
We have a very exciting proposition to make to all of you. For the first time ever, we are considering joining our fans on a very special Flogging
Molly Caribbean Cruise!
The cruise would be in late January, 2011 and would travel from South Florida to the Caribbean and back, with port of calls in Belize, Cozumel, and
Cancun. This is your chance to get up close and personal with the band as they take the stage on the high seas in this unusually intimate venue!
Besides Flogging Molly, there will be several other musical guests hand-picked by the band to keep the excitement rolling during the trip.
In addition to musical performances, there will be many other special events with Flogging Molly such as exclusive 'hangs' with the band, photos
sessions with Flogging Molly, Q&A with individual band members, special bar time with members of Flogging Molly tending bar - and many more events
that we haven't even thought of yet.
Our cruise will be comparably priced with other 5-7 day Caribbean cruises, and take place on one of the premier international cruise lines. Don't for
a minute think you'll be slumming it! Here's the big question...how many of you are interested? It really comes down to the number of fans that choose
to join us to determine if and when we 'go for it'. Are you interested in attending? If so, please write us at floggingmolly@villamartists.com right
away. We have to get a fairly accurate gauge of interest prior to locking in our cruise ship.
FLOGGING MOLLY
Well I've got a feeling I'm gonna get mine in. Retribution let the games begin.

Maybe you can do the mini-Boston version of this idea...

I like Flogging Molly enough. They're quite the live show and all. But in general I hate Irish music. They're one of only a few bands that get a pass
in my book. Their last album lacked all the energy that makes them special though. And this sort of event crosses the line into complete silliness
though they will make a small fortune from the idea.

I like FM, but this whole thing just reeks of the gay.

fire, but I?m just not close enough to get the job done.? George Carlin

You mean london?
Living a life kept shut by a dream,
I'm reaching out to grasp my reality.
Hands of time wrap tight around my neck, and hit me so hard,
leaving me eyes black.
staring at a ceiling,
wondering why i never left,
penning words in a notebook,
wondering why haven't slept.
sanity is tapping in a cell
inside my fucking head.
begging for redemption
after hearing what was said.
the nights, they will not sleep
cause the days, have played for keeps.

seems like a good idea if there were a bunch of good bands but then it would essentially be a floating festival. I like flogging molly but i would end
up throwing 90% of the people on the boat overboard after the first day.

I laughed heartily.
They always tour with the same bands every time. Aggrolites, Street Dogs and that band from Texas that isn't as good as everyone says.

a cruise with flogging molly and street dogs would be cool if i had the cash. a cruise with them and their fans would not be so cool. i think the
punk rock cruises (legit cruises and booze cruises) must be terrible. didn't some on here post the bad brains booze cruise? these things are all
weak. reminds me of an attempt to recreate the cruise scene from sid and nancy, and even that sucked.

only weird thing about that review is that it was on brooklyn vegan. but maybe i just associate vegan with militant sXe too much based on where i've
lived, and a positive review of murphy's law from a militant sXe website blows my mind.
