Right - sorry - I don't think I expressed what I meant very well...

I know that the Dropkicks were popular in the 90s (I liked them then as well), but I always considered them more "indie" as they weren't really played on the bigger radio stations (more on college stations)... I remember, at the time I had to go out of my way to consume them and they eventually fell off my radar.

When The Departed came out, "Shipping Up to Boston" was on the radio all the time... It was awesome - And there was a lot more radio advertisement for their tours... Whereas before I had to go out of my way to hear them, they would just come on the radio now in my car... I think, ultimately I was trying to say that the movie really significantly boosted their popularity and really got their name out in the "Popular" space, whereas they were more "underground" before. It probably more accurate to say that the movie lead to a surge in their popularity.

Agreed. Push comes to shove THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY is probably my favorite movie. Thanks for the video excerpts.
