PrintIt's White Puerto Rican Pride Day, a.k.a. St. Patrick's Day. Being white, we imagine at one point someone injected some Irish DNA into our bloodlines, but being white trash we have no definite documentation of that. It's just a suspicion, especially given the long and proud tradition of high-functioning alcoholism in the family, the lapsed Catholicism, and generally whorish ways of the Irish their charisma and charm, so evident on this site!
In celebration, we present a balanced, fair picture of Irish culture: the Pogues singing "Streams of Whiskey."
Slainte!

Have you ever seen Shane McGowan’s teeth up close? That’ll put you off your drinking.

You surpassed the “Come On Eilene” video I was expecting.

1,2 – That’s orthodonty courtesy of Peach Schnapps. Here’s some Molly for y’all.

I’m pretty sure Shane and Sloth from the Goonies go to the same dentist.

Thanks for that article 4.
Just saw them live last Sunday. They kicked ass of course and only solidified their place as one of my top bands.
If you can catch Flogging Molly live, do it. It’s as if they incite a riot and then play a soundtrack to it. Simply awesome.

Shane McGowan was born in England. That’s a fact. What kind of Irishman does that make him? :-p

Flogging Molly – I like them better when they were known as “The Pogues”.
