Irish music in NHL games. Anyone know who and what it is?

During the playoffs, I've heard Irish music playing before they're about to drop the puck during the game. I was wondering if anyone knew who, or what it is? I don't recall what teams were playing at the time.

Update:

Juxtapose, I said "music". Not song. You're not very good at reading are you?

Update 2:

thelau I'm guessing about two to three weeks ago. It's just music with an Irish flair while they're killing time before they resume play.

Update 3:

Bob those weren't it. But they were awesome and I did get them. Thank you.

Update 4:

Judge that was it!!

Bob I love these guys now too! Thank you. Now downloading them too.

Update 5:

And a special thank you to Jack.

    Likely was the Boston/Philly series in Boston and the band was likely the Dropkick Murphy's.

    Whatever it is, it's probably by Dropkick Murphy's. Theyre the only Irish band that arenas will play...

    @ juxtapose, OK, I know this may be difficult for you to understand, so I'll take it slow. 1. Somebody answers with a song here. 2. The person looks it up on Youtube. 3. If it's right, then it's right. If it's not, the person tries a different song.

    What do you mean by "other identifying information?" Do you want him to hum it for you? Let's see how well that translates over text...

    "So I heard this Irih song that went, ' hmmm hmm doo doo DOO hmmm.'" That's REALLY helpful.

    I think you may be talking about "I'm shipping up to Boston" by The Dropkick Murphys. I have heard that at a few games.

    How logn ago was this? Lots of playoff games have already been played....

    I remember hearing Machinehead by Bush (X) at the Mellon a while ago, but they're British.

    Well if you don't know any of the lyrics, or have any other identifying information about the song, how are you going to recognize a correct answer even if you get one?

    That's like saying "I saw an animal at the zoo that was brown, but I don't know its name, I don't know what sound it makes and I can't describe what it looks like". The best we could do is list off a bunch of brown animals.

    You're not going to get a good answer.
