As an Irishman, I was taken aback by the positive crowd reaction for the Irish figure dancers. The Yanks (Americans) loved them! Me and my mates were pleasantly surprised :-)
@Beantheredonedat Boston has many ancestral ties back to Ireland, especially South Boston (or "Southie"). Plus, it's unique - you don't usually see dancers in a pregame concert.
Careful how you use the term "Yank" though - Anywhere else, it wouldn't matter, but in Fenway Park "Yankee" is a dirty word. It's the name of the Boston Red Sox rivals, the New York Yankees. You don't want to be calling someone a Yankee in Fenway Park unless they're wearing the New York pinstripes already.
Boston was Home to the Boston Braves and yes my Distant Cousin was a Die Hard Boston Braves Fan he told me many stories of Heart break and how 48 was suppose to a highlight but Friggin Bob Feller and Bod Lemon destroyed his dream as he would always say....
greenfan10 i agree with u... gmenfan2003 ur fucking stupid i have a sticker on the back of my truck that says YANKEES SUCK and everyone agrees with it the yankees do suck balls oh IRISH FTW
born in the north shore, raised in the bay area. die hard oakland a's fan, dont like the red sox, but love the city of boston. the dropkick murphys...well, theyre pretty rad too.
OMG! I love it!!! A shaky hand is better than nothing? LoL Wish I could have been there for this one! I got to see them win game 6 at the Tropicana in 2008 against the Rays. Made my day! Go Red Sox in 2009. Yes, I already have my tickets for the 4 game's here aginst the Rays starting April 30, 2009. Can't wait to see them here. New England first always in my heart even though I now live in FL. 0:-)
haha,well if someone thinks they can write a better song than this,then why arent you an artist and making as much money as them,cause their songs have been rly succesful so far,so try it :),GO BOSTON,GO IRISH!
Actually it is hard to play, as an amateur banjo/guitar player I find myself hitting the wrong notes when trying to go the same speed as this song. And no you couldn't write music as good as this. Nobody can. Except DKM.
Shipping up to boston is kind of the anthem to all things baseball and basketball here in Boston. They played it for our magical Celtics and for our delightful, world champ Sox. Good video, its hard to capture from that far away.
Fucking Irish...
