Our friend Bryan over at SkaPunkPhotos.com shot some amazing pics of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones at their show at Irving Plaza in New York City, NY on August 24th.  The Bosstones rarely tour the US anymore, but have hit the road this month in support of last year’s Pin Points and Gin Joints.

Check out all the pretty pictures HERE

Long-standing ska-core veterans the Mighty Mighty Bosstones are currently touring the country once again in support of their latest album Pin Points and Gin Joints.  This video is from said tour during their set at the House of Blues in Hollywood, CA.  The band is joined by an additional horn player, late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel!  Kimmel dusted off his bass clarinet and joined in on the songs “The Impression That I Get” and “Devil’s Night Out.”

“Graffiti Worth Reading”

“Dont’ Worry Desmond Dekker”

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones performed last night on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! Despite it being quite rainy in Hollywood, many fans showed up for the free mini-concert.  Clad in black suits and skinny ties, they played the song “Graffiti Worth Reading” from their brand new album Pin Points and Gin Joints.  The band then changed into plaid tuxedos to play the show off the air with the song “Don’t Worry Desmond Dekker” from their rarities collection Medium Rare.  The Bosstones haven’t played on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! in a long time despite their frontman working each night as the announcer for the show.

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones are going to be playing on December 26th, 27th, and 28th at the House of Blues in Boston, MA and on December 29th at the Middle East nightclub in Boston, MA for their 12th annual Hometown Throwdown concert series.

Today is Bosstones day!  The Mighty Mighty Bosstones release their long-awaited full-length album Pin Points and Gin Joints today.  To commemorate this occasion, I decided to post this video of the band in Kamloops, BC playing at the Snowjob festival on March 26th, 1998, right on the ski hill.  The video features the band playing the songs “1-2-8″, “The Rascal King”, “Do Something Crazy”, and “Royal Oil.”  It’s great to see people in snowsuits and ski gear creating a large moshpit!
