Metal hails,
Just letting you know that due to the amazing response to TALKING METAL's pilot, FUSE has invited the show to firmly plant its metal feet for a steady stream of new episodes. I believe that this is great news for metalheads and heavy metal in general. I'm there ripping away in every episode throwing my 2, well make that 5 cents whenever it feels appropriate.
We also do some jams like the one I did recently with Richard Christy from Death, Iced Earth, Control Denied and Byron from God Forbid. Us three, plus the show's hosts Mark and John did a version of Slayer's South Of Heaven. Look for that and so much more in the show.
Special preview on Saturday, February 16 at Midninght Eastern and 9 PM PT. Episodes will air regularly on Friday nights at Midnight Eastern, 9 PM PT beginning February 22nd.
Check out the new website www.fuse.tv/talkingmetal and the site that started it all www.talkingmetal.com
Metal On,
Metal Mike
