And we just, we don't try so hard, but, you know, yeah, we are a punk band.

We're all regular, regular guys.

We're...

We're not afraid to confront the situation, but I think what people like the most about the video you're talking about, because I've had some other videos go semiviral where the interaction wasn't as friendly with someone in the crowd, but what people liked about that video is there was dialogue to it.

These fans were in the front row.

MAGA shirts on, clearly, front row, and they had a blow-up of Donald Trump's head, so they wanted to be acknowledged.

And I confronted them and made a bet, because Dropkick Murphy sells only made-in-America merchandise.

We don't brag about it.

I am on TV talking about it, but, you know.

Considering we just go about our business and do it to support American workers.

Meanwhile, the other group, every shirt they have is all about how patriotic and American they are, yet they get their merchandise cheaper from sweat labor in another country.

So I made a bet.

because I was pretty sure that his shirt was not going to be made in America, and I said, I'll trade you a Dropkick Murphy shirt and $100 if yours is made in America, and if it isn't, I'll just give you the shirt.

And the guy was a good sport.

He took off his shirt, and he threw it up to me on stage, and he had a smile on his face doing it.

And I talked to him after the show, and this was a lesson for me because...

I just had assumptions about what he was like.

By the way, this show was in Florida, so it wasn't like we were shooting fish in a barrel.

And I went down afterwards, and he said, hey, man, I've been coming to see you for 20 years, and I consider you family, and I don't fight with family.

And I was like, wow, that made me not necessarily want to judge a book by its cover all the time.
