2018- Recording drum tracks to demo out new songs to be recorded for my 6th solo album. The new album was recorded in 2023 at Echo Mountain Studios in Asheville, NC and is still incomplete. I want this to be my masterpiece, so I'm taking my time on it. The shirt I'm wearing has a quote from my former partner and venture capitalist Roger McNamee's book entitled "Zucked." Roger was a heavy investor in Facebook and a financial advisor to Mark Zuckerberg when it was a start up company, advising Mark to not sell the company.

2015 Spain – The Final Assault tour. It was about 1pm in the afternoon and about 100 degrees in the shade. We were all exhausted by now, and touring was becoming torturous. I had the Nuclear Assault Logo redesigned in Chrome after seeing Kiss on their 40th anniversary tour in 2013 in support of their album release “Monster” in 2012 with the new chrome logo. (or 2014, I don’t remember – the exact date is in the book)

2015 Bogota Colombia South America. Standing up to say hello to the audience of 150,000 people. By now the Carpal Tunnel damage in my wrists was so severe that I could barely hold onto the drumsticks any longer from the numbness.

My 4th solo album that was completely recorded in 2 days in El Paso, Texas at Sonic Ranch Studios and released in 2015 after recording Nuclear Assault’s “Pounder” in 2015 which was released just before the Final Assault tour kicked off in 2015.

2014 – This was the actual vinyl picture disc that I had printed up a limited number of 1000 copies, and also the record I sent to John Connelly and Danny Lilker of Nuclear Assault with the note, “Let’s go record a new album.”

2014 Release of my 3rd Solo album “Overload” which I sent to the members of Nuclear Assault with a note that read, “Let’s go record a new album and do some shows.” This is the album that lead to the Final Assault reunion and tour in 2015.

2005 Nuclear Assault reunion world tour in support of the 2005 release “Third World Genocide” album.

My first full length solo album was recorded in 1989 and released in 1990 on Combat Records. This was the album that led to the first downfall of Nuclear Assault. The other band members were jealous and copied me and followed suit by recording solo albums, but I was the one that broke the barriers and unintentionally opened up Pandora’s Box.

1989 on tour in Japan in support of the bands 4th and most successful album “Handle with Care.” Pictured is the entire American and Japanese road crews along with the band members. I’m on the top standing on my drum seat. I got the idea for the 40-foot x 10-foot Nuclear Assault banner after reading the book, “The Magic of Thinking Big” written by David J. Schwartz in 1959, while bedridden with double pneumonia fot three weeks, making the band look larger than life. The amazing light show was the largest we could afford to provide for the shows.

1985 Promo shot with the band Harter Attack. I played guitar in this band while searching for the right band to platy drums in.

I later went on to sign Harter Attack to my record label “Arena Records” , which I then signed with I.R.S. Records with major label distribution through MCA Records. A rising tide lifts all boats…

1984 Performing with TT Quick at a club in New Jersey after the release of our first album on Megaforce Records. Becoming the big fish in a small pond.

1982 Performing with TT Quick at the Stone Pony in New Jersey. We played there every Tuesday and Thursday, and every other Saturday Night as the house band. We played 6 nights a week, throughout the tri-state area, playing 3 – 1 hour sets a night. It was a rough way to live, but I was determined to make it work. The multiple 1000-watt par cans would fry my skull night after night just inches away from my head.
