Gwar Crack-a-Thon and the Gwar-B-Q

Gwar today announced the official dates for two of the year's biggest events on the Gwar calendar-the Crack-a-Thon and the GWAR-B-Q!

On June 3rd, 2011, Gwar lead singer and media darling Oderus Urungus returns as your host for the Crack-a-Thon! He will be joined by his host Balsac, the Jaws of Death (who insists he is also a full host), on June 3rd, 2011, 10:00 pm E.S.T., streaming LIVE on http://www.crackathon.com from Alleykatz in Richmond, Va.!

Whew! This year's show will feature a star-speckled line-up of local and not-so local celebrities, notorious roust-abouts, and a slew of surprise Gwar character appearances, video's, and public beheadings. And all in front of a large and drunken studio audience!

If they won't let me be on TV, I'll just make my own show", Oderus was quoted as saying.

But there was more news from Slave Pit today...it was announced (now) that the Gwar-B-Q has officially been set for August 27th, 2011! That's right, what was re-born last summer shall live again as the Gwar-B-Q returns! There is no word yet on the location or bands but the event is expected to mutate mightily in the hot summer sun.
