From , with sound, vision and hope
Tonight, Scotland National Team take on Morocco at Gillette Stadium in , the final group game of a run that's already become a story all of its own. For two weeks the has more or less adopted : kilts on the T, pipes at Fenway, and a city that's taken to Scotland as warmly as Scotland has taken to it.
Watching it from Ayrshire, one connection of ours feels especially fitting.
A few years back we spent a day looking after , founder and frontman of Boston's own Dropkick Murphys, and a man whose loves run to music, golf and the Boston Bruins not necessarily in that order. He was over for a Glasgow show, and we did what any good host would: a round at Royal Troon Golf Club, another eighteen at Trump Turnberry, and a lift to the gig that arrived, against bank-holiday odds, on time.
Boston and Scotland, brought together by music and golf, a few years before football did the same on a far bigger stage.
So tonight, we're cheering on Steve Clarke's side with one eye on Foxborough and a fond memory of a Bostonian who felt right at home on a Scottish fairway.
And, a message to the While In Boston, go see the Dropkick Murphys youll not regret it!!
