MetalSucks.Net Iron Steel Update

Metalsuck.net recently got an update from Iron Steel Guitarist Tommy Reid. The “Super Group” (I hate that cliche) is made up of members from Sevendust, ex-Megadeth, Chimaira, and Skid Row.

UPDATE FROM IRON STEEL GUITARIST TOMMY REDD
IRON STEEL FEATURES MEMBERS OF CHIMAIRA, SEVENDUST, ex-MEGADETH, AND SKID ROW

Tommy Redd of the new thrash supergroup IRON STEEL has written an exclusive blog entry for MetalSucks. The band also features Morgan Rose (SEVENDUST) on drums; Dave Ellefson (ex-MEGADETH), Jim LaMarca (CHIMAIRA) and Rachel Bolan (SKID ROW) all on bass; along with Redd and vocalist/guitarist Fran Strine. Each week a different member will be posting a blog entry at MetalSucks. This week Redd reports on a recent run-in with Afghani rebels during the band’s tour of Asia. An excerpt from the blog entry follows:

I was really trying not to let anyone suspect I had an other-life, but when Iron Steel toured through Afghanistan, I had to take a band of heavily armed enemy forces using only my guitar strings and Fran walked up to me as I strangled the last rebel and took the bloody string to use on his guitar. Another time I had to use Morgan’s sticks to disembowel someone, he found the guts on them and made me explain (Morgan has torture down to a science – I’m jealous).

So now you know all you can about me without putting your life in danger. I am starting to think that these MetalSucks guys might know too much and may need to be ‘taken care of’. Uh, Vince… Can I talk to you in the back lounge of the deluxe Iron Steel tour bus? Pay no attention to that guitar slide in my hand…
