He learned cover songs like "Take Hold of the Flame" and "The Lady Wore Black," and quickly became hooked. He went on to learn the first five Queensrÿche albums, along with many other hits from 80s rock and metal bands. With a solid repertoire of cover songs, Matt was ready to hit the stage as the frontman for "Maskerade," a local cover rock band that was ahead of its time. Before long, "Maskerade" was playing cover tunes from "Dream Theater" and much more.
