The Teaser Band   1983 - 1985

When I first met Lyle in 1978. I had met Harry once before. I was invited to one of their rehearsals by Kenny Hamm whom I met when I first moved to South Florida. Kenny was living in an old house on Krome avenue  just north of Homestead. Years later after I'd played with Lyle in RPM, Harry & Lyle reformed Teaser (named after the Tommy Bolin album) and I was asked to join, Which I did.

Musically I though this was one of the better bands I had been in. We played a wide variety of material from Rush, Genesis and many top 40 tunes which keep the band busy especially after Kirk Williams joined us.

In 1986 I quit to join Rosetta Stone.
