    I love these guys. I saw them a week before Going Out in Style came out, and it was one of the best shows I've ever been to. It was a small venue in Chicago that was filthy inside, but my god was that a fun night. Beer was flying the entire show and although I didn't drink I came home smelling like beer. These guys are great. They're such bros.

    About 10 years ago as a 16 year old I saw Murphys play a small club in my town. I got up onstage at the end, busted a rib, was accidentally punched in the face by my own friend in the pit, and fell down with everyone on broken glass at the end of Barroom Hero.
    I managed to snag the set list and get Ken to sign it for me afterwards outside the venue, to which I obviously said “Thanks man that was the greatest fucking show I’ve ever seen.”
    His response “You oughta get out maw.”
    I fucking love these dudes even if I don’t listen to the new stuff as much. You can tell they have so much heart.

Your Al Barr!" and looks up smiles and goes "Yeah last time I checked." I'm like damn man Als got jokes and I asked him if we could take a picture and he said sure but only if I didn't sell it for Leftwing propaganda and I told him it was to make my buddy jealous and he smiled and said absolutely let me finish signing this stuff up.
