Matt Kelly does not want to be like Limp Bizkit’s Fred Durst. The drummer for the Dropkick Murphys (the Boston-based Irish punk-rock band) spoke with me prior to a sold-out show at Avalon last Saturday about performing, stardom and “keeping it real.” “I’m probably not the best guy to interview,” he humbly warned in a Boston accent while resting his heavily tattooed arms on the table, “but I’ll try to answer intelligently...
