Chris Caffery's site

The best band from Germany I have ever heard!
Not the same band without Fernando!!!!

Another awesome progressive style band with a hard edge. I had the pleasure of partying with them in Dallas in 1990 thanks to the old Metal station Z-Rock. Criss Oliva was way too cool. May he rest in peace.

One of the best progressive metal band's of the 80's who came back strong with (my choice for best album of 99) Astronomica, but looks like they are gone again. Too bad!

     

Reuniting after 25 years!!!

Leather Boyz with Electric Toyz!
This was the first metal band I ever met, back in 85, these guys are awesome.
Lay Down the Law!
The triple axe attack!!!

Crown of Thorns
     
     

Dream Theater

Great 80's metal band and one of my first concerts, with the legendary Carmine Appice. (website is very old)

Great progressive band, not a whole lot to say about them as thier music speaks for itself.

One of my favorite glam bands
