A Little About My Music: I Started playing guitar around the age of 11. Somehow I got turned onto KISS and from there it was ALL down hill! I grew up and cut my teeth playing Ace Frehley licks, but once I was turned onto the 80's hair bands, it was ON! Warren Demartini, Mick Mars, George Lynch just to name a few, were huge influences! I started playing out by age 14 and in bars by 17, doing both covers and original music. I don't know why or how I fell into this life of music, but its possibly the best and also worst thing that has ever happened to me. I feel loved and blessed to have the limited talent that I do, and I hope that along the way I have made someone, anyone feel happy, inspired, loved or joyous with the music that I have played.

When I was 16, my band, Midevil recorded a 4 song demo and even at that age you can tell that was all that I wanted to do! We had this huge opening bit, sequenced helicopters, jet fly-by's...it was awesome!

Over the years I played in and recorded with a myriad of different bands, culminating in 1995's release of "Believe" by Psycho Cafe and the subsequent inclusion of Psycho Cafe on the 1999 Worldwide release of "Creatures Of The Net" an Internet based KISS Tribute CD benefitting cancer in the name of the late Eric Carr of KISS! (BTW, that's where RemCarr comes from, Remember Eric Carr) The CD sold remarkably well, and I was told by the distributor that it was HUGE in Japan and that they LOVED Psycho Cafe over there...thats pretty cool I think! You can pickup BOTH of those releases in my MERCHANDISE section VERY SOON, the "Believe" CD is being remastered from the original DAT master tapes and includes some awesome bonus material! This was and still is to this day one of the things I have done that I am most proud of. This band meant the world to me and still holds a special place in my heart.

I spent the latter part of 1999 thru 2001 in Sherri Bomb, playing some great shows and having a fun time with some good buds! We had a great time and I miss jamming with them, though at one point it was as if we were Spinal Tap, we could NOT keep a drummer! HAHAH! Anyway, I had always wanted to play in a band with Sherri K and Mark Matteo, it was awesome and I hpoe we can jam together again sometime. From early 2001 until March 2004 I was the lead guitarist and driving force behind the 80s dance band Edison's Medicine. I helped take them to the highest highs and also was there for the lowest of lows. We played some amazing gigs and opened for some of the coolest National Touring bands! It was the most fun I have probably ever had playing in a band, up until the last week I was in it. Thank you to everyone who supported me in that venture, your all amazing people! Now you know something about me! :-)

Special Thank You's: To GOD for giving me the gift of music, family and friendship, My Loving Wife Laura For Puttin' Up With My Sh*t for All These Years...There should be some kind of award for that, right?! Mike's Hard Lemonade, Mom & Dad Fonce, Mom & Dad West, Mark Matteo, Kayleigh and Britteny (I Miss You Dearly and I live for the moments I get to share with the two of you), The D.O.T.'s, Michelle Williams, Rich Black, Crystal & JR, All my nieces, nephews and GOD children, I truly am blessed! Anthony (for always being there dude!) & Patty Fuda, Rudy Rouweyha ( Its ALL About The Jacksons!)

To all the musicians I have had the honor of playing with over the years: It was a pleasure and you all have inspired me to become a better musician.
