I grew up in Northern NJ and started playing guitar at 12. In 1984 I joined NJ thrash metal pioneers WHIPLASH but didn't stay for long. In 1985 I formed the band DEATHRASH who received worldwide acclaim before breaking up in 1987 (you can learn more about DEATHRASH by clicking on us in my 'top friends'). I moved to NYC in 1988 and with an insurance settlement I opened a rock 'n roll clothing store in The East Village called The Snakepit with my friend Mark.That lasted till the early 90's when I sold my half to Mark and started a leather manufacturing company, I had been doing custom stuff for The Snakepit and decided to sell wholesale. We had customers all over the world including Hot Topic. In 1994 I opened the 'legendary' Skin Crawl Boutique, also in the East Village. It was THE horror/goth boutique in NYC and our clientele ranged from the famous to the infamous. When I go back to NY I still see people wearing Skin Crawl t-shirts! But by 1998 NYC had kicked my ass and I moved upstate to Peekskill NY where I met my devil girl and we have been together ever since. We moved to NH in 2005 and got married in Las Vegas on 6/6/06! In 2007 we found and bought the house of our dreams in Charlestown NH. DEATHRASH has reunited and we are putting out a CD called "THRASH BEYOND DEATH"- you can check that out at www.deathrash.net. I've lived a pretty colorful life so far and am just glad to have survived long enough to appreciate it!
