Yes, it is true if you want the steak to cook evenly... You are going to want to let them come to room temp (this should take about 30 - 45 minutes) out in the open air... Go ahead and season them right before you toss them on the grill... My suggestion is just a little salt and some cracked black pepper...
Let the steak rest for about 5 to 10 minutes depending on the thickness. This allows the juices to move back into the meat. Resting should be done in a place that is about room temperature and with only a loose covering over it. If you doubt me, try cutting a steak in half right off the grill.
