Major Announcement From Al . . . .

Al tweeted yesterday,

“WHAT’S UP KNUCKLEHEADS? YUP IT’S YER OL’ UNCLE AL…I AM TWEETING. THIS IS SO GAY. STAY TUNED FOR FACEBOOK UPDATE FROM ME COMING SOON.”

Did he pay a nickel to some neighborhood kid or something?

His twitter post is actually hilarious.

Ministry just got a Twitter account.

I hope that’s not the “major announcement.”

This is looking quite possible.

MINISTRY Is Back!

The reactivated MINISTRY, SCORPIONS, HAMMERFALL, AMON AMARTH and GAMMA RAY are the newly confirmed bands for next year’s edition of the Wacken Open Air festival, set to take place August 2-4, 2012 in Wacken, Germany.

Maybe he got TAZ to tweet for him.

I wonder if anyone will get the joke.

I caught it, Homie.

Where did that announcement come from? If getting booked at a festival with loads of straight metal bands is the first inkling of news then this isn’t going to bode well…

Worst fucking news all day

Wooow

Meh. Guessing saccia’s back at least… I won’t bother though. But maybe they’ll at least play a better setlist than CULaTOUR.

no one is surprised, and i find it difficult to garner anything other than disdain after the “farewell” tour.

i would love to be proven wrong, though.

I read this news as U Can’t Touch This is playing on the radio

But maybe they’ll at least play a better setlist than CULaTOUR.

Here’s to hoping. Maybe AL has figured out he can pay his bills easier by being a “jukebox.”

Why? Unless you were planning on going to the festival how does this effect your day in any way, shape, or form?

EDIT: “effect” or “affect”? I’m not sure…

effect=noun
affect= verb

Just remember “a verb” and you will remember by default, “Effect is a noun”

how does Ministry reforming affect you?

the effect (sound=thing) of ministry’s amplifiers damaged my hearing.

Affect can occasionally be a noun, as in the band name Special Affect.

This would be the exception, not the norm. you follow the “rule” I posted and you’ll be right more often than not.

Whoa, that’s a pretty far in-advance notice. 12 months? Shit, even Coachella gets announced like 6-8 months prior…

Because I had no other bad news yesterday this announcement qualified as the worst. So I don’t really care too much. Just some more embarrassment for the name of Ministry.
