The hometown [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Dropkick Murphys[/lastfm] will play back-to-back days at Fenway Park this September to benefit Massachusetts families affected by the 9/11 tragedy.

The Dropkicks Murphys will return home to play Fenway on September 8th and 9th.

Founder Ken Casey on playing Fenway for a full show, “We feel honored and privileged to share a connection and friendship with the Boston Red Sox. Our involvement in the 2004 and 2007 championship seasons are some of the greatest highlights of our career and our lives. But to be invited by the Sox to join the select few who have performed full concerts at the park is truly a dream come true!”

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones will also be in town for the 2 dates.
