We reached out to Ceol Patrol for comment but they were too busy trying to defeat Blobber the Robber to respond. We did, however, receive a response from the totally fine and not at all shady Monocorp’s CEO on the release of the new show....
Dear reader,
Uafásach here. Evil villain and main character of the poorly named Ceol Patrol programme. Against my lawyers wishes I have decided to post this short note warning you not to root for supergroup Ceol Patrol as you listen to their adventures.
Instead, I encourage you to cheer for me, the great Uafásach! Feel free to draw pictures of me or write songs about me and just celebrate my amazing-ness really. I really am worth it in my personal opinion.
That is all.
Sincerely,
Uafásach
