"the singer in a swedish metal band" as if sabaton is not world famous
TheBulbousGiant
Saw them in Seattle recently, great performance and excellent stage presence.

I've just gotten into Sabaton recently. The story behind Attack of the Dead Men is crazy. https://youtu.be/3MRSLSQdelI

I know that losing bet in an Irish band will ship you up to Boston
GriffinMann41
Of course it's Joakim who did it, lmao
SilentScreamsX
Sabaton are fucking awesome. Seen them opening for other bands twice. Need to go to a concert where they headline next.
8gigsofshark
I've been to shows they've headlined twice (w/ Battle Beast and w/ Hammerfell) and both times were 100% worth it. Amazing stage presence
SilentScreamsX
Battle Beast are also on my list of bands to go and see.
8gigsofshark
They are highly worth it

If you do drink and gamble: Don’t make bets if you aren’t prepared to lose.

I guess they don't play too often.

I've seen this band live. They kick so much ass and the singer is fucking hilarious. Highly recommend if you like power metal.

Eggy1632
As soon as I saw it I thought. Yep, gotta be Sabaton.
MrWggles
High praise for anyone following through on a bet. Well done sir!
PonyMadness
So... did he make it in time?
HunglikeaHamster
Imagine the concert you were lookingf forward to being cancelled because the band made the singer walk....
IrishCyko
I looked into it, apparently he did, he stayed in the homes of fans along the way.
Saberdragon
I believe so, not 100% sure but I vaguely remember reading that he did somewhere
hertta
Would have taken him at least a week, if unaccustomed maybe two weeks.
PAPASQUATT
Hes a vocalist. He will show up just in time and not help with any load in
bloodydingo
Classic.
PlatonicPajamas
God I love Joakim. Seems like such a genuine dude.
LongboardLiam
https://youtu.be/PLGhhCv9bYk I saw this live, they gave the kid more signed shit at the end of the show.
BearViking
He is, with a delightfully inappropriate sense of humor.
kuwie
Best concert I've ever been to. Great woth crowd interaction.
PlatonicPajamas
Agreed. Seen them about 8 times now. Just under Alice cooper for me.

thevaginalviscerator
Sabaton is actually a pretty well know band too, that's awesome
UlphSvenson
Too bad all their fans are camo shorted idiots
minipancho94
got to see them live. the band opening for them was terrible and were drunk and wouldnt get off the stage. still an awesome show.
grapefiend
I had to miss them just this past September. Sad times, indeed.
lauxemlamae
Saw them live opening for Nightwish, was an amazing show!
thevaginalviscerator
Nightwish is also an awesome band

thedonjohnsonfuzzylook
I was 1000000% expecting some tiny randos lmao
MrHailstone
A guy i know from the internet is a director of a Tank Museum. He is a huge sabaton Fan and gave them a private Tour when they were in town.
PolarHailStorm
Sabaton is amazing! I cannot remember the track, think it was from last stands, but the camera shifting across the battlefield was great
dreadpiratekirk
Should borrow Angus McFife XIII’s legendary enchanted backpack.
PotatoeChamp
In the land of uuuuuuuuu-niiiiiiiiiii-cooooooooorns!
Thorinori
Jetpack* and yes, yes he should. Fuck that would be a fun show, Sabaton and Gloryhammer together
TheLordCypher
The song/band in question for the uninitiated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnzurkSGBCs
laiskamato
Add some Korpiklaani and Alestorm and you'd have a two-week hangover.
TheLordCypher
They should do a run with Grailknights too and end the set with Pumping Iron Power
Superchief86
I think we just became friends! "Flex! Muscles tight!"
JHRD1880
Made of steel! Flesh delight!
locutusufborg
I know a Scottish band that would walk 500 miles... and then walk 500 more...
CheeseB0t
To be fair, all they ever did was talk about how "if I could" never about how they actually did walk anywhere
G2ElectricBoogaloo
Well played my friend!
NotACanadian
I know a singer that would walk a thousand if she could just see you.

I mean if they could be a man that walked 500 miles then why not walk 500 more

Just to be the band that walked 1000 miles to fall down at your door
