POISON
When
Arlen and Kurt formed the band, Poison, they wanted to push their musical
abilities beyond what they had done before.
With that in mind, they gave a set list of intricate material to all interested
parties. It just so happened that
in one audition, bass player, Bill Walsh, came to the audition with his
drummer/guitar player, Mario Resto.
They nailed the songs musically; and to make things even better, they both sang
very well.
Poison
was, without a doubt, an extremely talented band musically and vocally.
They were well received throughout
Michigan and Ohio
immediately. The band didn’t do any
recording, but Arlen continued to write songs with the intention of recording
them later.
The band
disbanded amicably and each member went on in their own musical direction.
