Playing shows throughout New England with such acts as Extreme, Malice, Poison, KIX, And Many Others, Recording at Top Notch Studios Normandy Sounds and Blue Jay Studios-Bobby got his first taste of live shows, and recording professionally. Out of that came the songs Ticket for Love and Born to Rock You.After Glass Dragon's breakup in 1986, Bobby moved on as a solo artist, writing all the music, lyrics, and arrangements including lead vocals.
