I won one of the "Ultimate Shredder" contests that they had last year. I personally didn't consider what I did "shred" but Russ said he liked the solo... so I got a free trip to Vegas for Wifey and Me. Of course in typical Steel Panther fashion they told me next time I come not to bring my wife because it was like bringing sand to the beach. She laughed... so all was well. LOL
For those of you who doubt the musicianship of these guys... don't. They are super guys who love classic metal and they can play ANYTHING. They asked me to pick the set list for pete's sake. I got to play Death to All But Metal with my solo and we did Panama... because when you are on stage with most of the old "Atomic Punks" its a no brainer! Anyone who says they "suck" isn't listening or watching for that matter. My guess is that they can't get over the "image".. but my money is on those same people thinking nothing is wrong with Slipknot doing something similar.
