"We are so proud of how Minnesota stood up and met this moment and we are so sad for the community and for the Pretti and Good families for what they've gone through," says Dropkick frontman Ken Casey. "So it is an honor to come down and be able to play some music for the people and let them know we stand in solidarity with them."

Dropkick Murphys recently released a new song called "Citizen I.C.E." in protest of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. It's a reworking of a past Dropkick song called "Citizen C.I.A."
