Statement from Turisas

I like the fact that Turisas was even considered ProgPower worthy. The response at their announcement was great. I'd like to see this mean that the inclusion of other "like" bands would be valid as well. In that regard, I recommend Korpiklaani, Finntroll, or Alestorm under the category of "gimmicky folk band that puts on an awesome, engaging show."

... or the originator of the genre... SKYCLAD!
 
Goes without saying the number of hours Glenn put in on the work visas etc.
All pissed away because of lame band management. Not good.

They were planning to launch a full blown North American tour starting in Atlanta to promote the new CD, so I'm not sure if it was up to Glenn to help with the work visas this time. The offer for the PP gig came so late that they must have all visa applcations made already.

Anyhoo, shit usually happens when you least expect...
