Review of Flogging Molly’s Concert at ACL Live in Austin, Texas

As a fan of live concerts, I was over the moon to hear that Flogging Molly was coming to ACL Live in Austin, Texas. I had heard so many great things about the venue and was eager to experience it. To top it off, I was excited to see that Skinny Lister and Anti-Flag were also on the bill. It was shaping up to be an incredible night of music.

An Opening Act Worth Raving About – Skinny Lister

Skinny Lister opened the show, and from the moment they took the stage, it was clear they were the perfect band to get the crowd going. With their unique blend of traditional folk and energetic punk, Skinny Lister had the crowd shouting and dancing along to every song. Their set was filled with catchy tunes and lively performances, and I was thoroughly impressed by their musicianship and stage presence.

One of the standout moments of their set was when they played their hit song “John Kanaka.” The crowd was singing along and swaying to the music, which was a beautiful moment of unity. Skinny Lister‘s performance was incredible, and they set the tone for a fantastic night of music.

A Supportive Scene – Anti-Flag

Next up was Anti-Flag. They brought a message of political awareness to the stage. Their songs are not only musically talented but also serve as powerful statements about current events and issues. As the crowd sang along to their most famous songs, including their hit “American Attraction,” it was clear that the message of Anti-Flag resonated with the crowd.

One of the highlights of their set was when they played their powerful anthem, “Die for the Government.” The crowd was fully immersed in the song’s message, and it was a moment that I’ll never forget. Anti-Flag delivered an excellent performance, and their energy and message set the stage for Flogging Molly’s headlining set.

Flogging Molly Stole the Show

Finally, Flogging Molly took the stage, and they stole the show! Their high-energy and infectious songs had me dancing and singing along from start to finish. They opened with one of their most famous songs, “Drunken Lullabies,” and the crowd went wild. The energy in the room was electric, and I was in awe of the sheer talent of Flogging Molly.

Throughout the night, Flogging Molly performed a mix of classics like “Devil’s Dance Floor” and newer hits like “Reptiles (We Woke Up),” and the crowd was thrilled with every song. The band’s energy was contagious, and it was impossible not to be swept up at the moment. The night’s highlight was when they closed their set with their hit song “What’s Left of the Flag.” The crowd sang along, which was a fitting end to an unforgettable night.
