Well here we are 3 weeks into the New Year and you already have 2 killer shows to dig into! This week is pretty much straight up punk again. This is music like I remember it. Punk like I remember it when I was a youth. Coming from a small town in Canada my ideas were not always the sharpest, but music helped me. I remember going to Dr. Disc in Windsor Ontario and picking up copies of the Metro Times from Detroit - Talk about an education. In the 80's and 90's learning about new music was not so easy and leaving your mark was even harder. Lot's of the of the bands on today's shows came from those days. Some newer and younger folks still rock it that way and props to them, its not easy! Hope you enjoy the show, it was a helluva throwback for me!  Don't forget to Listen live Thursday from 7 - 9 om EST and check out my other show, Rocksteady Tonight Sunday from 6-8 pm at www.BootBoyRadio.net. Turn it up loud and and as always thanks for listening ~ Phil (aka The Grinning Beggar).

Season 22, Episode #1  Well another year down the crapper some may say, and some day I might be apt to agree with them! But for all of its bullshit 2022 has been not a bad year for music, and for personal growth as well. Though I am not sad to see it in the rearview mirror despite it making me another year older. So before I introduce the show, welcome to the new site. I need to apply some spit and polish to it, but this should allow me to post more shows in a more timely manner. I am going to try to upload some of the old content, like the St. Poguetricks Day episode, and some of the root shows. Though it there are any favorites you want let me know by Facebook, here or email. So without further ado, I have long time been raving about how amazing Aussie Celtic Punk is, and that has not changed.  But I have really been getting into Aussie Punk and Oi! as well, because it's amazing. I have a connection that takes good care of me, plus I am naturally a freak and find a lot on mine own. Anyway enjoy this as a New Year treat, Oi! Oi! Aussie Rock n Roll, title inspired by Rust! Listen live Thursday from 7 - 9 om EST at www.BootBoyRadio.net. Turn it up loud and and as always thanks for listening ~ Phil (aka The Grinning Beggar).

Season 21, Episode #5  So... we might be on Episode #4 or #5, but it doesn't matter! The important part is that there is a new show, finally! I can make excuses but the bottom line is I am just a lazy fucker. Regardless today's show is a real banger. I figured being that Lion's Law was about to tour the US, and there are a lot of killer supporting bands so I figured this would make a good show.  As it runs out it made for a fucking fantastic show. Not all the bands are supporting acts, but all the tunes are pretty fucking awesome.  So get those boots dusted of and get ready to dance, Paddy Rock starts now. Don't forget to Listen live Thursday's from 7 - 9 om EST at www.BootBoyRadio.net. Turn it up loud and don't forget to drop by and visit our friends at Covert Vinyl Fire it up and as always thanks for listening. ~ Phil (aka The Grinning Beggar)

Season 21, Episode #3  Well I am back without a 6 month wait! The response to the expanded Paddy Rock pallet has been nothing short of brilliant. Seems Oi! transcends Celtic Punk extremely well, I suspect it is that blue collar, working class values they both share. This is a great thing because I have been playing a lot of it and this week is 2 hours or Punk Rock, Street Punk, Oi! bangers! This show rocks so hard you will be rooting through your fridge for breakfast beers! Not only is this show ripe with proper bangers, there are a handful of screaming classics from Down Under, hence the name of the show. I am certain you will play through one through a few times.  Pardon the vulgarity, but it comes with the territory. Listen live Thursday from 7 - 9 om EST at www.BootBoyRadio.net.

Season 21, Episode #1 As we kick 2021's ass out the door now is the time to have a look at some of the great Celtic Punk & Rock the year brought  us. Its not as much as previous years, but there was a good bit! Though for the amount we got it was still a strange year, presumably due to 2 years of Covid, Lockdowns, cancelled shows and social distancing, bands just don't really have the funds to produce full length albums. Who can really say but the result has been a handful of full length albums, a number of Ep's and 2 handfuls of singles, but at least we have music to rock out to. So enjoy the round up from 2021 I did not get through all of it, I only have 2 hours. If you want to listen to it all check out my Spotify Playlist HERE ! And keep your eyes open for the best of 2021 coming out sometime this year.  Turn it up loud and don't forget to drop by and visit our friends at Covert Vinyl Fire it up and as always thanks for listening ~ Phil (aka The Grinning Beggar).

Season 20, Episode #11 Well October is here and my birthday has come and gone once again, still not a fan but they get less painful because I care less. One thing is for sure though, the older I get the harder I try to hang onto the things I loved in my youth. One of those things is music! I walked so many paths I have forgot more music than most people will ever know. That is the reason for this episode, I am not sure I have ever done a purely Punk show, so this it is. Mostly every tune is something from my younger days when I was Punk as Fuck...  You remember those days too don't you? Walking clichés we were, ohhh those good old days!  Enjoy the show and don't forget to drop by and visit our friends at Covert Vinyl Fire it up and as always thanks for listening ~ Phil (aka The Grinning Beggar).
