Shall We Krill Them? Yes, Krill ‘Em All!: It’s the end of July and wherever I may roam, nothing else matters… It may feel like creeping death outside but until it sleeps, the master of puppets will seek and destroy the four horseman and the blackened. It’s sad but true, as we turn the page, like moth into flame, the unforgiven will find the no leaf clover… If you still aren’t picking up what we’re laying down you need to lay off the whiskey jar and just say: Enter, Sandman. (It’s Met@lli©a Night!) …No metal night would be complete without sick pyro and a long sleeve, black, t-shirt, so we’ll give some away to the first 500 fans! ***Please note: One giveaway per person, not per ticket***
