Founding member and band leader-spokesman, a savage and sometimes brutal old school lead guitar player. Partial to Jackson v's and dive bombing with his Floyd Rose tremelo. Writer of most of the heavier and darker of VR's tunes. A classic example of his writing style and lead guitar work can be heard in the epic song "Domestic Bliss". Can also be heard belting out some occasional Lemmy style vocals on tunes such as 'RLH', 'Lady took a Chance',and 'Medusa'.
