Re: Aussie Metal

I believe you are correct, sir! But he now lives in Tasmania and I understand his last couple of bands have been comprised entirely of Aussie musos. I only threw his name in for shits'n'giggles anyhoo. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Aussie Metal

Really? I thought he still lived in the U.S. Oh well, I haven't really kept track of him for awhile. I know he put one or two solo albums out back a few years ago (which I never got), and in '93 he had his band Freak Of Nature... they put out the self-titled Freak of Nature, in '94 they put out Gathering Of Freaks, then they broke up. They did put out an album called Outcasts after that, and it was some different versions of songs or unreleased stuff. If you haven't heard any of it, check them out. They were an awesome blusey/hard rock/classic rock type of band. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
