Shows this week…With Flatfoot56 Three very big shows this week for the killigan camp. Please show your support to touring bands and make it out to one or all of these shows, buy some merch, meet the bands, and get ready to have a hell of a night.. Flatfoot56 has been around for awhile, and the last year or two has been crazy for them, signing to a label, getting asked to tour japan with Flogging Molly, releasing a new album, and of course, non stop touring. If you like hardcore, fist in air, anthem punk mixed with some celtic pipes and mandolin, not to mention one of the best live shows in the country, DONT miss these guys…I hear they are some of the nicest, most approachable dudes as well.
