Album Notes

Pirates For Sail, under the leadership of Captain Mad Molly Mudd, has been navigating the waterways and watering holes of Maryland since 2005. We plunder, pillage, carouse and sing, and we do all this in between consuming enormous quantities of rum. We're bloody pirates, matey, and we're on the account until Jack Ketch catches up to us! What do we do? Well, what do you expect pirates to do? We do battle with steel or black powder. Some of us swallow swords or breathe fire. We can rouse your spirits with a bawdy drinking song, or we can soothe your soul with a beautiful old ballad. Or we could always just steal your gold, drink all your booze and be out of sight before the dawn. The choice is yours, really. Want to see us in our natural habitat? Pay a visit to Piratz Tavern (www.piratztavern.com) in beautiful downtown Silver Spring! Barring interference by the Royal Navy, you can meet us there every Friday evening and every other Saturday. You could also hire us for your own private engagement, as it's our belief that any occasion can be improved by the presence of pirates! Weddings, birthdays, bar mitzvahs, funerals... Visit our website at www.piratesforsail.com to learn more, and to see photos of our ugly mugs. PUAGH! "A Shot Across The Bow" is an expanded, remixed rerelease of our original demo recording, recorded in February and July of 2007 at Bobby Bender Studios/Javboy Records, Douglassville, PA (www.javboyrecords.com).
