an album, Animalize. He developed the arthritic
condition Reiter's Syndrome just before the Animalize
tour. He watched from back stage as Bruce Kulick filled

It was Baltimore, Novemeber 27th, 1984. Things didn't
go very well and he was out of the band the next day.
Since his days with KISS,
he was part of the band WHITE TIGER for a couple
of years. Then he got into producing and engineering,
owned his own recording studio, managed a few bands
and has done a couple of other album project. Mark
still appears at a few Konventions each year. Now he
teaches guitar to about 15 students a week. |
