Introduction	I am the man behind WRECKAGE METAL RADIO!!!! Back in the mid- 80's I was shipped off to my mom as a teenager to live in Fremont, Ca. This is where I met guys like Robb Flynn (Machine Head), Jym Pittman, Craig Loccicero, & Russ Anderson (Forbidden), and Vio-Lence. I started doing Kill! Fanzine (1 & 2). It was influenced by Kerrang, Metal Forces, Metal Mania, Kick Ass Monthly Magazines. I did features & interviews with Legacy (Testament), Kirk Hammett (Metallica), Slayer, Exodus, Vio-Lence, Forbidden Evil, Death Angel, Hirax, Death, & many more. I even managed Vio-Lence for a short time (mk1 line up), where I booked their first Ruthies Inn gig and did their flyers. I was involved in the Bay area Thrash Metal Scene until late 1986. I moved back to Phoenix. I started hanging out with Phoenix bands Flotsam & Jetsam, Sacred Reich, Pedifile, & Nuclear Death.
