Video: Skybombers at Val Air Ballroom 08.07.2008

By Scott Kubie • September 15, 2008

We’re music people, okay? We’re not taskmasters. A bit slow in getting this together but we had a great time at the Flogging Molly/Skybombers/Tyborn Jig show at Val Air last month and are rolling out the videos. Check out this first one from that night featuring a green-room interview with the Skybombers and some clips from their performance.

This whole night was really a blast. These guys informed the crowd that they were one of the biggest they’ve ever played in front of and Des Moines did not let them down with a very enthusiastic response.

Skybombers’ debut album “Take Me to Town” just dropped in June. They’re currently on a UK/Australian tour and seem to be making a name for themselves.
