Dropkick Murphys are headlining a free block party Friday 3/6/2 near where Alex Pretti was killed by immigration agents.

They connected with some punk rock friends in Chicago who connected them to punk rock friends in Minnesota and they got the idea of playing a short acoustic set somewhere near W. 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue S. in Minneapolis, where Alex Pretti was killed. They’re still playing that set, but now are leading a 10-act show playing in the parking lot of the Black Forest Inn.

The show, which will also be live-streamed, is free to attend, but there will be lots of opportunities to donate to neighbors in need.

On Friday, March 6, Dropkick Murphys, the iconic Irish American punk band out of Boston, are playing the Palace Theater in St. Paul.

If I got this right...
Dropkick Murphys will perform a block party concert, then a full concert at the Palace Theater in St. Paul.
I don't know how it will be live-streamed, but I will be watching for it and post on DU.
