Southern AMVers: Go See Drunken Japanese Irish Punk in March

So last night I went to a one-man for a band I've become good friends with, The Cherry Coke$. They are 7 Japanese musicians who play Irish Punk in the style of the Dropkick Murphys, the Pogues, etc. Their English is incomprehensible, but they are damned good and a hell of a lot of fun to see live.

Anyway, last night had two major announcements: one was that they're releasing an album on a new label this year, and two is that they're doing their first US trip this coming March as an opening band for Flogging Molly. They'll start in Florida in early March (I believe the 7th) and traipse across the southern states for a good bit of time. Sadly I have exams around then otherwise I'd probably be tagging with them as a photographer, but that doesn't mean I can't support them from over here!

Here are the dates:

Friday, March 7
House of Blues Orlando
Lake Buena Vista, FL

Saturday, March 8
Jannus Landing
St. Petersburg, FL 33701

Sunday, March 9

Why would I do that when I'll get to see mildly drunken Norwegian Folk Metal in May?

I don't see the need to choose in this sort of situation.
