You don’t see a lot of accordions on late-night TV (or any-time TV, unfortunately), so I was happily surprised to catch the Dropkick Murphys on the Late Show with David Letterman last Friday. With the band member Marc Orrell rocking a Roland accordion, they played a track (“The State of Massachusetts”) from their latest CD, The Meanest of Times. Here’s the video:

YAY! I, too was very excited to see the Dropkick Murphys on the Letterman show, especially seeing Marc Orrell rock out on the Roland accordion. I’m now going to search out their CD as a result of seeing them on the show!
