Beat me to the punch.
Where I heard about the  Men of Steel is an interesting story.
I went to a show to see Beppe Gambetta.  He is an outstanding Italian guitar player.  He plays the folk circuit and festivals like Merlefest and Kerrville and he flatpicks in the style of Doc Watson.
He told a story of when he toured with a group made up of himself, Dan Crary, Tony Manus, and Don Ross.  They all play acoustic instruments with steel strings so they called themselves The Men of Steel. 
The tour was going well until they hit New Zealand.  The first show they did the front row was full of scantily clad women who proceeded to throw undergarments on stage.  It was then that the guys discovered that New Zealand has a very popular male stripper group by the same name.
Beppe tells the story with his very srtong Italian accent and ends it with, " eeze hard to compeeet when you only have a little peeek (pick)." And he holds up his guitar pick.

Now aren't you glad you asked?

I heard Blah Blah Blah Doc Watson!!!! One of the greatest guitarists in the history of the instrument. I remember watching a video that the smithsonian made of him playing. He was like 80 at the time and I was still mesmerized by his fretting. He was playing two melodies and keeping the rythmn all at the same time. Insane.
Doc was special, for sure.  I was fortunate to have seen him about 10 years before he passed.  Simply incredible.

Now that would be very cool.
Live your life so that the fear of death can never enter your heart, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes, they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way.

Sing Your Death Song And Die Like A Warrior Going Home.
