Alestorm guitarist Gavin Harper has issued the following update:
"We're off to see the Metal! The wonderful Metal of Camp!
"Forgive the Wizard of Oz reference... I'm running out of borderline smart-arse titles! I need some time off and will return with less degrading names for my bulletins...Jesus Christ...
"
Right! We've just confirmed for Metal Camp in Slovenia, 04/07/08. This is fucking stunning as it was the festival we finalised our record deal at and as such, really wanted to play it this year! We hope to see all of you guys there!
"Second order of business, I cannot remember for the fucking life of me if I have put this in the last one. I've uploaded the full, album version of 'Captain Morgan's Revenge' to the MySpace player.
"We're almost at the one week countdown till the first release (Finland) so whore this round like a dead elf in Dundee!
"Fuck, there was probably something else I was gonna say. Nevermind..."
Till the next time!
-Gavin
P.S.: "Any pro-drivers in the UK, over 25 feel free to PM me about a possible job! Clean license and not a convicted rapist is preferred."
