In the artist's words:

A fearless and daring crew of adventurous buccaneers sails on the legendary pirate ship Lightning under the flag of the no less legendary Captain Blake. The most adventurous, however, is certainly the gunnery crew around Mr. Hurley. The captain first had enough of their escapades in 2009 and sent them ashore to let off steam.

However, as they were used to making a lot of noise as gunners, they continued this habit on land and now board the stages and pubs on land - using their instruments just as devastatingly as their cannons at sea.
