Hey Guys and Girls as well.Don't want to leave anyone out!First of all a thanks to Bill for posting the link for his resizing utility as the photo I'm posting here was a bit too large at first to meet system maximun file size.It worked well for me and was quick and easy to use.Now about this pic!LOL.
Back in the day in my longhaired early years I liked to do the heavy metal club circuit and saw these guys play out one New Years Eve.The played all original music as they wrote their own songs so no cover band here.I was really into their show and followed them around the club circuit enough that they started to notice me. Eventually they pulled me aside at one show and presented me with this signed band promo photo and asked if I'd be interested in joining the road grew which I did.They mostly played local clubs so it was no big deal.Unfortunately the band never made it big time as they lost the lead vocalist and eventually they disbanded.
They did have good management and the potential was there but in that business everything just has to click at the right moment.So I just thought it would be fun to post this pic of my friends from"Ritual".As always comments welcome!LOL.Mark
Reminds me of my Dad's band, my dad was really big into hair metal.

Hi Dave!
I'm glad you enjoyed that pic as it is such a throwback.Back in those days its amazing how many guys grew their hair out as it was very prominent at the rock clubs.That is, not just the bands onstage but almost the entire audience!LOL.And all the shows I saw especially at La'mours in Brooklyn NY was sooo cool.Remember Autograph?How about Vinnie Vincent,Saxon,Anthrax,The Ramones just to name a few.Mark
