Oddly enough, though I'm a metalhead, I never got into Skid Row. Probably because both their biggest hits in the 80s were ballads. Bleah. Sorry, guys, but no. I can't remember if I've ever even heard him sing except by accident when I couldn't change the station.
We were born the same year and so a lot of his references and the timeline punctuation rang very familiar to me. He was a crazy kid though and allowed to be because his parents were WAY more permissive than mine. Running off to Toronto as an underage teen to sing in a band? Why the hell not? At that point he started living like someone 10 years older and it's a wonder he didn't kill himself.
He drinks and does a lot of drugs along the way and I half expected things to turn very bad followed by a stay in rehab, but there's none of that. Either he never really became an addict or drug use hasn't wrecked him or his life the way it has his friends'. I was kind of happy about that. Also happy that he found success after Skid Row. He doesn't go too deeply into the reason he was fired, although he does talk about it. I suspect that some of what he said was true (jealousy over the attention he got from the press, fans, etc.), there are two sides to every story and honestly he sounds like an exhausting person to be around.
That said he also takes his work and his voice very seriously. Part of the deal his dad made him when he first joined a band was that he take real voice lessons and show up for every one of them. He did, but oddly sounded like he didn't learn much and blew his voice out screaming to warm up. Only later did he get real understanding of how to care for his instrument and he did. I'll have to hit up You Tube for a listen...no doubt memories of the songs will come back. Ah, youth...gone wild.… (mehr)
