MICK SWEDA Quits BulletBoys After MARQ TORIEN Berates Warrant & Skid Row 

Too bad. Mick deserved better than this and more recognition than he got. One of the few Les Paul players of the time. His chops and tone were phenomenal

Sucks what happened with this band. Their first album was amazing

How did he retain the name? " Uhh well my dad was a piano tuner down in palm Dale and we use to go across the street and eat taco's on Tuesdays "

I met Marq in 94 in Charlotte NC at the Ritz club. The next day I drove some of the guys around and interviewed them and later on I did an interview with Marq. He was really cool and invited me to eat with them. My very own father screwed that up for me, so I did not eat with them but I did drive them to the restaurant. I told my son this years ago for when he hears stories about the bands he likes. You love the music. You stay out of the politics of the band. If you allow the information from within to bother you, you will not enjoy the music as much as you used to. Hate hearing that Marq was bad to work with.

Mick is a class act. Torien has great pipes and is a great musician, but he’s always had a higher opinion of himself than what others actually think. I saw the Bulletboys (MT being the only original member) in Austin a few years ago. He seemed a bit of a diva with the sound check guy. He also posted in his Instagram that the show was “sold out,” but man, it wasn’t even CLOSE to being sold out. Nevertheless, it was a great show.

Stinks to hear this. I was fortunate enough to see Cinderella, Winger, and the Bullet Boys all together in Cincinnati back in the day. GREAT show!!! Sounds like another LSD situation....Lead Singers Disease 😂

He had LSD...Lead Singers Disease.

They should have called themselves the Carmine Appice boys.

I met the guys when they were touring for their 1st album . This was in Cleveland at Peabody's Down Under. I was with my straight laced buddy who drank very little but anyways he loved going to gigs super early. So we were staying around, their bus pulls up and Mick was the first guy down the steps of the bus and he asked the dozen or so of there, "Who's got some weed?" My friend looks at me with puppy dog eyes and I turned to and said, "I do." Mick says, "Come on, get in " I told him, " My buddy has to come on too." He was like, "I don't give a shit, let's go." 😂 The whole band then was full of energy and just great guys. After the smoke fest they let my dude take pictures (which I still have some to this day) and we got to stand right at the front of the stage. They were great. I was more if a heavy metal fan, but my dude just had the time of his life. I had a great time but was really frickin 🤯. If you know what I mean. 🤣

ZaZa was a very good album

smooth up in ya!

I knew Jimmy the drummer...! Great guy & hope he's doing well ! 🙏🏻

I like the band but the singer always seemed like he was trying to be like a David Lee Roth clone!!Too full of himself.

Sounds like Marq really could've learned a lesson from Kevin Dubrow. Those who cannot remember the past....

This is why NO ONE knows who Mark is.

Some people just can’t keep their feet on the ground and what really sucks, is when their bloated arrogance, ruins it for the other people involved.

Good words!

How is that not a answer , done is done , figure it out

Question has nothing to do with the answer.

The Palace in Philly?

The irony here for me is, I loved Micks guitar playing. Marc is no singer like Bach or songwriter like Lane. He’s not and has been a great singer.

That didn't answer the question

He didn’t really answer the question he’s a bit shady IMO

Skid Row > BulletBoys > Warrant

Hated this band so much 😊

Great band but marq has always been arrogant as hell

They SUCKED!

Making fun of Warrant?! Who didn't make fun of Warrant?! Before Beavis and Butthead made Winger the douche band, Warrant had already held that position for years!

Cheez rock 🙄

It's always the Guitar player, that turns out to be a head case. WHERE'S Marc 's career now.😂😂😂😂

Saw. First. Tour. Bulletins. LAMOURS. BROOKLYN. NY. 87. 88

those bands were way better than the ballet boys
