Thanks for adding me, Steve! Heart of Steel was an incredible inspiration (I watched Reckless every day, two sets each day, during the stint at the Saskatoon Ex in 1985), and sent me hunting for the first album, and eventually discovering Marshal Law. I like how all 3 albums are very unique, and I can't wait to hear the new material.
I have some requests, and I'm curious to explore writing, but we'll save that for another time. Let me know what you think of my songs, if you have time to check them out (you are the teacher, and I'm the student, so you really should examine some of the damage you've caused . . .)
