Widowmaker

In 1991. Dee fights back by forming his most brutal band yet, Widowmaker. Along with Desperado bassist Mark Russel, Dee enlisted the sonic battle-skills of guitar maestro Al Pitrelli (formerly with Alice Cooper) and drummer Joey Franco (who played on Twisted's last album).

With mainstream gone "alternative," Widowmaker has kept to the independent route to avoid being forced to compromise their artistic vision. Even with poor distribution and virtually no promotion or air-play, they've still forged out a dedicated fan-base of modern rockers.

I was so upset,I had the chance to go see widowmaker live in Fortwayne,In a once in a lifetime for me, I drove 3 hours to get there and when I got there after driving around looking for the place, I get in line to go in and find out they are refunding the tickets, coz Dee called in with a sore throat.I grew up listening to Snider(twisted sister, widowmaker) and they was my favorite bands, even watched strangeland several times, my one and a lifetime chance to see my favorite guys on stage blew by like a tornado. now im 40 and will never get tht chance again.
