Dear The Rotted...

Over the past 6-to-9 months, I have seen an increasing number of gigs involving the band Alestorm in the Central Scotland region where idiots have been shouting "YAAAAAR" and engaging in all sorts of pirate-esque shenanigans.

Are you concerned that Alestorm are trying to muscle on your considerable share of the Pirate Market in the Glasgow area?

yeah man, motherfuckers started dressing like pirates to do it too, how can we compete with that shit!? Specially now our token Scot's gone, these days we're just a mish mash of Scottish/English/Irish/Italian/Israeli.

We still welcome up there? ;-)

Only if you're getting them in.

All the best for 2009, ya bunch of jaky scallywags.

You are still very welcome up here. Although, just because you've changed your name doesn't mean you can think we've went loose with the whole pirate spiel. You'll get the usual torrent of seadog nonsense.

And, for the record, Alestorm are shit compared to you guys. :P

I would expect nothing less!
