Zig At The Gig With Marky Ray
A native of Cleveland, Marky emerged from its fertile punk seen in the early Eighties, back when the Cleveland Heights/Coventry neighborhood served as ground zero for local rocker misfits. As Marky knows better than anyone, the business of rock isn’t for sissies.
He’s seen it from every conceivable angle – guitarist, bassist, keyboard player, singer, roadie, show producer/coordinator, tour manager, emcee, stuntman, publicist, consultant… I won’t share his entire resume, but following are just a few highlights:
As a performer: Johnny Action and the Treadmills, Johnny Clampett and the Walkers, the terrible parade, Death on a Stick, The Lyres, The New Salem Witch Hunters, Death of Samantha, The Jim Rose Circus, 3D, solo artist. As a road crew member and auxiliary performer (guitar/bass/vocals): Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, Butthole Surfers, Toadies, Die Warzau, Lollapalooza Tour (’91-92 – backing vocals), Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, emcee for Jesus and Mary Chain and Lush.
