-- Posted by JamesBrauman at 1:43 am on July 10, 2009 SO I went to my mates house on the weekend, and he tells me to listen to his new favorite band, Alestorm. Basically it is a mix between metal and god damn pirate music, like they full on play ACCORDIONS, dress up in pirate costumes and sing about being a pirate. The funny thing though, the music is actually alright. Just listen to the intro to this song, seriously: My friends I stand before you To tell a truth most ARR They lust a treator in our mist Who haven't vote the captain's ARR He don't deserve no mercy We oath to ship him with the guns But I am not an evil man So thus lets have a little fun We'll tie that scoundrel to a rope And throw it overboard Trap him underneath the ship A terrifying deadly trip Keelhauled, that filthy lad, gonna send him down to the death bellow Make that bastard walk the plank with a bottle of rum and the Yo-Ho-Ho Keelhauled, that filthy lad, gonna send him down to the death bellow Make that bastard walk the plank with a bottle of rum and the Yo-Ho-Ho I will not say what he has done His sins are far to grave to tell It's not my place to judge a man But boy he will burn in hell The sharks will dine up on his flesh And Davie Jones will have his soul Take his money and his hat He won't need them where he's gonna go And thus lets him to a rope And throw it overboard Trap him underneath the ship A terrifying deadly trip Keelhauled, that filthy lad, gonna send him down to the death bellow Make that bastard walk the plank with a bottle of rum and the Yo-Ho-Ho Keelhauled, that filthy lad, gonna send him down to the death bellow Make that bastard walk the plank with a bottle of rum and the Yo-Ho-Ho We'll tie that scoundrel to a rope And throw it overboard Trap him underneath the ship A terrifying deadly trip Keelhauled, that filthy lad, gonna send him down to the death bellow Make that bastard walk the plank with a bottle of rum and the Yo-Ho-Ho Keelhauled, that filthy lad, gonna send him down to the death bellow Make that bastard walk the plank with a bottle of rum and the Yo-Ho-Ho -- Posted by sub800 at 1:44 am on July 10, 2009 rofl no -- Posted by Mods1Blow2Me3Daily at 1:45 am on July 10, 2009 fuck accordion, i hate tejano -- Posted by JamesBrauman at 1:45 am on July 10, 2009 Quote: from sub800 at 1:44 am on July 10, 2009 rofl no its good as -- Posted by xxAshIsAFreakk at 1:45 am on July 10, 2009 ......

Isn't it like a synthesizer(sp?) accordion? Playing an accordion voice on a keytar does not count as an accordion. It's just playing the piano with an accordion voice. This is an accordion very similar to mine, 36 treble keys and 120 bass buttons: -- Posted by JamesBrauman at 1:59 am on July 10, 2009 Quote: from 4est at 1:56 am on July 10, 2009 Quote: from JamesBrauman at 1:52 am on July 10, 2009 Quote: from 4est at 1:52 am on July 10, 2009 I hate to break it to you, but I play accordion and there are no accordions in that band or that song.    Isn't it like a synthesizer(sp?) accordion?
