Wonders happen from time to time and I appreciate every little one of it. This time one of these moments came I as I read that Held Hostage, a small classic metal band has been chosen to perform at the Metal Hall of Fame on January 26, 2023, a event associated with big names that are already around for a long time and have made their way in the world of music.

We are so happy that Pat at the Metal Hall OF Fame had the faith that Held Hostage would come in and rock the Metal Hall Of Fame Gala in front of all the inductees and attendees."

Chris Poland to play Megadeth classics at Induction into Metal Hall of Fame 2020

Happy new year! 2020 starts with a bang of a event. Chris Poland will perform some Megadeth classics at his own induction ceremony into the Metal Hall of Fame. I think this is one of the rare chances to hear tracks of "Killing is my business" and "Peace Sells" with the legendary guitar player in a live version.
