It is already downloaded on my running power playlist.
Dropkick Murphys is all Boston, and for runners, DKM is all in.
One of the songs on the new album is, "4-15-13," written in honor of the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing.
Dropkick Murphys is not a group of loudmouth, spoiled entertainers. After the bombings, the group sold t-shirts, and gave 100% of the proceeds to victims of the bombings and their families.
On 4-15-13, I finished my 16th Boston Marathon. I wrote the account of that day in my book, "Personal Best," amazon.com/author/joemuldowney , in chapter entitled, 'Was That Thunder?'
We witnessed terror up close and personal, and the day is indelibly forever etched in my mind.
Three weeks later, at a Dropkick Murphys concert in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, DKM lead singer, Ken Casey spotted my Boston Matathon yellow shirt, asked me if I was ok, and we embraced.
This is a special group of entertainers who give back to the community.
For Boston!
