Agreed. I usually let my steaks sit overnight in a very basic and light marinade. In fact I wouldnt call it a marinade, as I am only conditioning the outer side of the steak to hold in its juices when it is cooking. A splash of vinegar, a splash of red wine, and a pich of salt and pepper, rub it in really good...its all to encourage the outer surface of the steak to "close up" so that no juices (or very little) escape during cooking.
Massage that meat...yeah...like that...ummm..rub that meat!
Make sure the wine is fruity. The fruitier the wine the better the natural flavors become enhanced.
...but you dont HAVE to do any of that if you have a damn good cut of steak. I just prefer to give it some splashing just to be on the safe side.
