December Newsflash

Alestorm returns to the US with Gloryhammer and special guests Glyph at the Summit Music Hall in Denver, Colorado 9-26-2025
It had been a few years since I last saw Alestorm and was really looking forward to covering their show in Denver. Joining them were Gloryhammer and Glyph. Alestorm were touring supporting their new album, The Thunderfist Chronicles. I arrived at the Summit about a half hour before doors opened to a line of people down the block and around the corner.
