Larry Lalonde is a local to where I live and I knew him when he was in his previous band, Possessed. It's nice to put in players that aren't necessarily in the vein of a Yngwie yet are still a virtuoso in what they do.

Your list could have gone on forever. Did I miss your mentioning of Jason Becker? He's another guitar hero that I was lucky enough to have gone to high school with. He has a rather tragic history that would be interesting for the readers of Steemit.

Take care and thanks for the walk down memory lane.
