Why This Band Won’t Be Wearing Green on St. Patrick’s Day

MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1)

With St. Patrick’s Day here…

it feels like the perfect time to talk about

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

(Music Cut #2)

In March of 1997,

just days after releasing
Let’s Face It,

they were breaking through

with “The Impression That I Get.”

(Music Cut #3)

So yeah… they were probably playing it

on St. Patrick’s Day.

But one thing they weren’t doing –

wearing green.

They stuck to their signature plaid suits

which Dicky Barrett once called it

“the punk rock version of a family crest.”

As for green?

That was for amateurs.

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“Have you ever had the odds stacked up so high
You need a strength most don’t possess?”
– The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
