The power of a Flogging Molly song

When living in Brazil, we had a large back yard and I would ruck with a 50lb back for 30 min after I got home from work and listened to music with Youtube music that learns from your preferences. After a Dropkick Murphys song, the song If I Ever Leave This World Alive came on. Immediately memories of my son came to my mind who committed suicide at the age of 30 in 2019. Luckily for me, it was dark because I was snot sobbing over his memory and loss as the song was playing. I must have listened to it about ten times in a row. As I finished, I went in the house and Ms Misantropo86 asked if everything was ok because my eyes were all red from crying so much. Shortly after, I started therapy. The song still gets to me, but not in the emotional wreck sort of way, but of the bittersweet memories of losing loved ones in the way it is a "dor boa" -- good pain.

Anyway, I wanted to post this because I just listened to it again while exercising and wanted to share the story of how emotionally evocative this song is much like Free by Florence and the Machine.

Farewell Tour

According to a Facebook post by the german Punkrock festival Ruhrpott Rodeo, Flogging Molly will be on their farewell tour in 2025. How and where was it announced that Flogging Molly are calling it quits? I didn't realise and can't find anything else about it. Does anyone have any info?

How long is the show for this tour?

I want to see them in a few days but I have work at 6 the next day. Show starts at 7 and one site says it goes til 8:30, but that doesn't sound accurate to me. I've seen them a few times before and their show length always seems to vary pretty significantly.

Edit: Just saw on Ticketmaster that doors open at 7 and the show actually doesn't start til 8! Looking less likely that I'll be able to see them :(

Any traditional after party spots in Minneapolis/St Paul?

Minnesota has one or two reasonably proper Irish bars, with no lack for other bars. I was wondering if Flogging Molly had a habit of going anywhere after performing (O’Donovan’s?) to unwind and hold court after a show? Seen ‘em live enough that I ought to buy them a round in appreciation, if I can.

Flogging Molly tribute mix

Enjoy this mix I made. Songs are edited in and out of one another pretty seamlessly. It’s a lot of fun to listen to.
Enjoy.

Does Flogging Molly do smaller local shows?

Do they ever play other than what is listed on their site? Maybe at smaller local establishments or their favorite places?

Tomorrow I'll be arriving in Dublin for the first time for a few days, tour around Ireland, then back for a little bit in Dublin later in September.

Oberhausen Show tonight

Does anyone know what time their show in Oberhausen (🇩🇪) starts tonight? The website says 6pm, but I assume that the two special guests Fiddler's Green and The Feelgood McLouds will perform first. We're a bit worried about missing the start of the show as we have a slightly longer journey.

This present state of grace and now is the time are the same song, right?

Didn't realize a new flogging Molly was out until tonight. So I turned it on and listened to it all, when now is the time came on, I felt I had heard this song before. I realized it sounds very familiar to this present state of grace. It has to be a sequel or homage song, correct? Or am I going crazy?

Can’t believe they are making a stop in my town.

I’ve seen several shows in this venue only seats about 1,500 so should be a great show.

Flogging Molly Salty Dog Cruise 2026

Hi everyone! My fiancé and I are looking to do the Flogging Molly, salty dog cruise as our honeymoon. But I cannot find when the tickets for 2026 would go on sale. Does anyone have an idea of when they would? I know that the 2025 tickets went on sale in 2023, that’s why I’m asking about 2026. It would be a few months after our wedding, and I really just want to get the tickets right when they go on sale.
