Saturday,
March 16, Celtic rockers Flogging Molly performed a raucous, adrenaline-filled
set for a capacity crowd of St. Patrick’s Day revelers at the Boulevard Pool at
The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Merging punk rock with Celtic instruments, the
band got onlookers to stomp and sing along to hits like “Drunken Lullabies,”
“Devil’s Dance Floor,” “Float” and “Salty Dog.”
As a
band that cannot be categorized, Flogging Molly’s heart and soul is felt
through fifth studio album and most prized work, Speed of Darkness, released in
2011. Thirteen years after debut album, Swagger, the band continues their
loyalty to fans, performing in bars, pubs, and nearly every major rock festival
in North America, Europe, and Japan.
Next
up at the Boulevard Pool is Tegan and Sara on Wednesday, April 10, New Order
with special guest Johnny Marr on Thursday, April 11, Vampire Weekend on
Friday, April 12, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs on Saturday, April 13 as part of the
Spring Concert Series.
The
Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas features artists at the forefront of the touring
world and emerging artists that will inspire the next musical movements coupled
with spectacularly-designed, technology-driven venues. Perched high above The
Las Vegas Strip, Boulevard Pool is a multilevel pool experience by day and an
intimate outdoor concert venue with unobstructed sightlines of both the stage
and The Strip by night.
