I remember them singing this while opening for Dropkick Murhpy's circa 2011 in Lowell. I recall making eye contact with the sister that was sitting. It was honestly a magical performance.

@ebelingindahouse Yes. I got to meet them after the Dropkicks show at the T-shirt table. They were really cool. The one who plays the accordion with the short red hair and glasses was the one who handed me my Dropkicks shirt when I picked it out.

the first song is called Grey Funnel Line... Though I think everybody guessed that, written by Cyril Tawney.
