    I like both, but since I have seen Flogging Molly in concert twice, they get my nod.

    I think there are more Flogging Molly's songs that I would like - but to me, Shipping up to Boston by the Dropkick's is just freaking transcendent. What an unbelievable song. So, by the strength of that song (and that riff), Dropkick Murphys.

    Of course, I may be biased because I used to play the accordion. :p

    Flogging Molly uses quite a bit of accordion too.

    I'm going with Flogging Molly. For the old school skaters of the late 80's early 90's legendary street skater Matt Hensley from H-Street is the accordion player.
