   About The Press Gang
Whoa,..we're THE fucking PRESS GANG!

"They sound like a cross between Great Big Sea and Slayer" ~Frederick Burns Deveaux







Posted by cristóvão On June - 26 - 2009 ~ June 25th, 2009, Sled Island Festival, Calgary, AB

"The night started off on time with Calgary locals the Press Gang. The four performed their spirited punk with songs about sandwiches and hating a particular 80s metal to a fairly thin crowd, the unfortunate consequence of playing so early. There were however two happy fans, double-fisting beers, right in front of the stage encouraging them on and they put on a solid performance."

thanks E....unfortunately it's too damn cold down here to go running around in a bikini at this point.   I just wore jeans, a low cut top, and heels, lol.  Check out the pics.  Papa Roach is great group of guys.

Thanks E, you seriously are the absolute greatest! It was lovely as always to see you again. Oh... Graham dropped some terrible news about hightailing it out of here in about a year or so???!!! He also mentioned some much better news about a Hail Damage reunion?? Now that sounds like a killer idea. Can't wait.
