Hi Eddie,

Thanks for all you are doing for the metal scene nationally. I've learned about a lot of bands (including Angel, which is from my hometown of Washington, DC) from listening to you, and I really enjoy your broadcasts.

My question is, as someone based out of the NYC area, is there anything you are currently doing to support the metal scene at a local level? As someone who plays in a NYC based metal band, what can I do (aside from the basics) to help the resurging metal scene in NY/NJ?

Butch Trucks once sent me 4 VIP tickets to see the Allman Brothers Band in Atlantic City as we were randomly in the same guild on World of Warcraft. I would never have expected the drummer of the Allmans to play video games in the bus, what other unexpected facts like that can you tell us about them?

That's solid advice, thank you for the reply. Individual pieces don't make a great band, it's about what those pieces combine to create. Great songs are, and always will be, the best marketing for a band.
