Shredders and Harmonies part Duex
 |
Me and my trusty Axe. It was freezing cold out the day we took all of these pictures.
|
|
I still own this guitar. It was my favorite while playing. I still own it, but it needs some neck work. Its a Charvel Model 2 with a Fender trim setter in the back for the tremolo system. Everything else about it was stock accept the strap locks for my guitar strap.
 |
The shirt was actually one of my favorites to play in too and I still have it also
 |
The band from left to
right
Mike "Thumper or the Beav" Drums, Sean Lead Guitar and 25% Lead Vocals
and some Bass, Me Rhythm Guitar, 75% Lead Vocals, Keyboards, Mark Bass with some
Lead Guitar. I and Mike were the only ones that owned leather jackets so Sean
and Mark borrowed two of mine. I had the only none fringe jacket during the
pictures.

Same location different pose. One of our main Promo pictures

That's water under the bridge OR Four Trolls under the bridge waiting for the goats to cross
 |
AJ's Jam night that we hosted. It was an easy hundred bucks. AJ's hated us because we were WAY to heavy for them
 |
Rockin Hard. Notice the band symbol in the background
 |
No wires attached. I have a wireless system that gave me total freedom of movement. I loved running around clubs playing my guitar
 |
Still Rockin hard
 |
In the camera mans face

Still in his face

These last three were taken just seconds apart
 |
These next series were taken at Bangles in Glendale (Denver) It was Denver's premier rock club. They would get in some pretty big names and most of the big name metal bands would party here and jam with the bands if they were in town from shows, or passing through
 |
The one and only time I wore spandex while playing. All of the other times I wore jeans. Except one we all wore shorts, Iron Maiden T-Shirts and Ball caps on backwards.
 |
For Whom the Bell Tolls. How do I know this? Notice the toy ray gun in my hand. I used it to open this song and Sean used it to close the song. I learned this trick from Steve Stevens of Billy Idol. He was doing this long before Eddie Van Halen or Paul Gilbert were using power tools. I'm not sure who did it before Steve Stevens. Notice also my two amps on the right side of the photo. I use a Marshall JCM 800 Lead Series Head on a Peavey 4X12 Sheffield speakers stereo cabinet, a Peavey VTM 120 amp on a Peavey VTM 4X12 cabinet of Celestians, a Peavey Pro-Fex II guitar processor (I could do drop D tunings with it with out having to re-tune my guitar and a stage tuner so I could quickly check that I was in tune after using the whammy bar a lot. My trim setter usually fixed that issue though. It was a dead Sunday night at Bangles but we had fun.
 |
Wrathchild by Iron Maiden. We usually did originals but we did 2 covers this night and Maiden was one of them. Notice a better picture of my amps. I still have them collecting dust at the moment.
 |
Yelling or saying something?
 |
Feeling the grove. Taken from the 2nd level of Bangles. It actually had 3 levels to it and was a great place to party and play.
 |
Sanity's Edge. This was one of two songs Sean played bass on and Mark did Lead guitars on. I did vocals on both and guitars on one of them. Not my favorite song to play until we broke up. I figured out how I wanted to sing it and not how Mark wanted it sung. I would also get Mosh Pits going on this song. You have to love a good Mosh Pit.
MP3 Files of songs
Mind you the mix on these were awful. It was done in a crappy 8 track studio and the guys mixing them down messed up the mixing that had already been done by Sean and I, which made me angry. Then they were all on a cassette tape that I dumped to my computer and converted to Wave files then over to MP3.s. We actually had enough songs by the time we broke up to put together a 12 song CD and still had about a dozen that we didn't want to record but we did play live
