Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more. St. Patrick’s Day is back again, a
rare cross-cultural experience that Americans have chosen to celebrate in our truly
stupid custom of polluting all meaning into an inebriated all-day war of attrition and orgy of crude stereotypes the scope of which won’t be seen again until Cinco de Mayo. Not a favorite holiday of mine, obviously, but one which I am happy to report on this year because there’s a great show to plug. Some top-notch local musicians have come
together to form The Rebel Liberties, a tribute act to the Celtic rock powerhouse band
Flogging Molly. It’s all going down at the Basement tonight at 8 p.m. sharp, with two
sets, no opener and $10 at the door. No pre-sale tickets, so first come, first serve this
fun bash.
