"One for the Road:" Tin Lynott

The best rock band to ever come out of Ireland was Thin Lizzy. Phil Lynott had more charisma than a score of Bonos. The local Thin Lizzy tribute band, Tin Lynott, gigs regularly at Martyrs' with shows that dig deep into Thin Lizzy's catalog, keeping alive the motto, "In Phil We Trust." It ain't just the hits with these guys. Here we found a video of one of their Martyrs' gigs, with guest Cameron Pfiffner (from Green Mill's Sabertooth Quartet) on saxophone.
