Skolnick in Sabotage? That's like Michael Jordan playing ping pong!!

[Bubonic Chronic]

I have always thought that Skolnick had the most phenomenal thrash leads around - but what's with that little skunky white streak in his hair?

I didn't know he was in TSO, all I've heard from them was the one Christmas album they always play in guitar center at Christmas time. They have other, newer work, I'm sure.

The thing I was most amazed at was that the Christmas album wasn't totally lame - I mean it's a Christmas album, so it's a little lame - but it actually wasn't half bad, considering.

Is Alex on that?

Bubonic Chronic, Alex Skolnick has now his own band - Skol Patrol. He also recently released his first solo album, now that he's into jazz guitar he played jazz covers of rock/metal songs from Scorpions to Ozzy to Black Sabbath. It's all instrumental. Great album too.

He didn't play on any of the TSO discs. He just tours with them. You can find more info on his website.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra has 3 albums, the first 2 are Christmas albums. The third one is their best, a great concept album titled Beethoven's Last Night.
