Problem is...this video is actually the last time we ever rehearsed, haha. We haven't done any practices since Elliot joined the band. He kinda just makes it up as he goes along.

He can still change songs midway through though. To have that kind of skill is a gift from the gods. (If you want to see this for yourself, I recommend the Live In Tilburg 2019 on napalm records. Elliot also has a keyboard cam.)

nah, it's mostly because our songs are so simple that anyone can play them with 5 minutes practice :P

Christopher Bowes why dont you have a book with guitar tablature so i can have the right one instead of shitty guitar tabs online

I jumped to a random part of the video and was immediately greeted by four grown men screaming their lungs out. 10/10, this is my favorite band for a reason.

I wanna be like christopher when i grow

It's been 9 years, did you make it?

6:12 love it!!!

An excellent drummer!

Dani plays a Dean Razorback V 255 guitar with EMG 85/81 pickups, into a Digidesign Elevenrack amp modeller thingy. He's got 1 patch set up on there; a generic 5150-style distortion tone. No pedals, no switches, no nothing. We keep it simple :)

them drums tho...

@Stryder46 Just to let you know, Ian didn't actually play drums on the first 2 albums. We had a session drummer come in and play random crap, and we glued it all together in protools.

I seriously doubt anyone is watching this now, nearly 10 years since it came out, but with all this new shitty rap coming out, I feel it’s about time we forget about it all and start listening to 6:20 on a 10 minute loop

Isn't that the a slipknot song too? I like the alestorm cover better

Thank you Chris for the behind the scenes look!

Petition for them to continue this series

This drummer is epic :o

the bassist at 1:18 "Hmm....." then at 1:20 "yeah I think I'll have a swig" so casual xD

I love how you can emulate the sounds of folk instruments with your keytar. It just goes to show how true to the Pirate Metal genre your band is.

I found this band in 2014 and been a fan since. Great band! A break from the norm out there. lml

Keelhauled is one of my favorite songs (the chorus is easy to sing, cause I'm spanish and the songs are so difficult) Thank you for this!

"BLAH BLAH BLAH ONE SONG LEFT BLAH BLAH BLAH !"

ALESTORM the spirit of the seas

You can play bass with drumsticks. They are called funk fingers created by bassist Tony Levin. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funk_fingers

4:18 "No mum, I don't want to practice my keyboard tonight!"

Alestorm is one of my favorite bands, you guys gotta come to this filthy called Brazil.

I didn't expect much when I clicked this, but it was hilarious! XD

This was so fun to watch... all over the place. Really hope you all come back to central Florida soon

@HyperChris Thank you, man! I'm practicing now on wooden planks so I won't screw up on the keytar. I want you to know that I think you're doing a great job, the new album is just awesome! Have a nice day. Greetings from Laurenz.

Not everyone can do it, but those of us that can typically find that it helps us relax and not worry, much like Todeshaendler666 said. Though it's easy to over do it, especially at a rehearsal that's going well because then it feels like you're just hanging out and not actually there to rehearse haha

Graspop lets crunch those invisible pinapples. Haha you guys were awesome! Hope you'll come back next year :) by the way: that was an awesome wall of death XD

Looking forward to seeing you guys in San Francisco 11.14.2012! Hope you play some of my favorite songs (Captain Morgan's Revenge being one of them).

Hey Chris im from Costa Rica and i am soooooo fucking excited you guys decided to come here! Hail Alestorm you crazy scallywags!

@LSRothSocial Lots and lots and lots of neon gaffer tape. Available in any hardware store.

Can't wait to see guy's in dublin on sunday! :D

If Chris replies to this, i'm going to buy Captain Morgon's rum and drink it while listening to Captain Morgon's Revenge \m/

2019. lml Rock a pirate

Is that Peter Alcorn on the drums? He looks like he's 18!

i had a repetition with my band and i was waiting for my members and alestorm were finished at the time we had to begin xD so we saw them @ the 013 :P

Goddamn I can't fuckin' wait to see you guys again in Hollywood!!!!!

I do hope you would grace the U.S. with your colors.... I'd set sail if I knew you were in the U.S... You are coming aren't you???

Petty sure I lost it at six minutes and fifteen seconds. XDDD

WE REHEARSE AT THE EXACT SAME PLACE AS THEM =D ALESTORM IS AMAZING!

Insane.

"...and slain the officers of wank"? LOL XD

Ahh I love it :D :D

blah blah blah one song left blah blah blah gotta love that ^^

Best presentation ever (8:10)

Love Peter (drummer) at 2:30-2:34 :/

Hey Chris!! Great fan here man from India!! I just hope u include some more parts with ur lead sound in ur future songs...that wud be wicked!! :D

@Watlolwutlol Imagine if they done that in the concert.

@TomPoes000 Don't. Please. For the love of everything that is good in the world!

I always wanted a Roland AX-7 but I'm intimidated by MIDI controllers... instead I've always stuck with the AX-Synth, RK-100S and now the AX-Edge (my pride and joy) since they have on-board sounds. Keytars FTW.

I wish you guys played the song like this live!

Aguante alestorm! saludos desde argentina!

only thing I don't like about alestorm is that they are based holland, so they tour less in the uk

Please make a new rehearsal video including Eliot. Saw you guys about 1 month ago and you were so awesome that i dont wanna listen to your album anymore because you are live so much better :D

@HyperChris Seeing you guys on the 4th of Feb in Plymouth :D, Chris Bowes you are my idol so stoked for this gig, plus this reminds me of our band practise but you just make it through some songs :L

Alestorm need to make a DVD like Korn's DVD Deuce Lots and lots of clips of the band just doing pointless stupid shit ! :D I love seeing what bands do outside of playing live !

I see Albert Heijn house wine!! haha XD

anyone know what chris says at 5:50 gaz shouts you played it wrong then chris says something only asking because it set everyone off 🤣

Fucki'n amazing man! These guys shoud be in Rock in Rio ( Rio de Janeiro Brazil) next year!

I mean, I know this video is 7 fucking years old but I'm sitting here and die of laughing. By the way, I use the same Guitar Stripe on my Bass as you do on the Keytar! Nice!

@FatalFantasy yeah thats right :3 love alestorm a lot 8D

uhm, are you kidding me? you guys really have a youtube channel?:D definitivly subbed^^

6:10 xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Now, I must be honest with you, Christopher. Some of Alestorm's tracks are based on the "Pirates Of The Caribbean" trilogy.

wait.. this was in 013? im going there tommorow to see yah guys :D

Propper Job.

I sometimes wonder if these guys even realize what geniuses they are.
