| Yep, I reckon they are alright. For once I don't think the clash is my problem. Wonder is it 18's? Dragonforce and Alestorm as an 18's show would be a bit odd. |

I saw them in the ambassador in '08 with Turisas supporting. It was a good show but wasn't the best turnout and it was 18+
I'd say they'll be even less of a turnout at this though could be wrong. Ill be at Wasp anyway!  |

| Even if it was on a different night I still wouldn't bother going. They're just too boring. Saw them before & did very very little for me! |

| Saw their recent show in the 100 club here in London, it was pretty meh, I wouldn't be bothered again. Not even sure they'll half fill the Shepherd's Bush Empire to be honest. |

Just got an email from MCD which confirms it is over 18's. It doesn't mention Alestorm either. Maybe they will have to move it to the Pint  |

Never by myself. I used to dread the question "Why do you not like them?" as the answer was less than polite.
Posing, generic, overrated, piss poor cunthawks of an excuse of a band. I'd rather eat my toenails than have to suffer them. I remember going out of my way to stay in the bar in Belfast while they were supporting Iron Maiden.
Fucking wankers of a band and that flailing haired fucker can cunt right off too! |
