Flogging Molly's Green 17 Tour came whirling through Detroit this past Friday at the Fillmore.

Flogging Molly frontman Dave King was plucked from a Dublin tenement building at 18 to sing for metal act Fastway back in the '80s. They slowed to a halt after several albums and King fell out with his label when they suggested he change the lyrics of a song about his dead father.

Three charming but foolhardy crooks have the idea to use a fire engine as the perfect getaway vehicle for their new scheme.
