Salem Road was named after the road our drummer Jim Prosser lived on and where we rehearsed north of Pickering Village. George Czender (I think the C went in front of the Z) from the Al Arbor, Lady of the Bay band was originally on bass but he moved to Australia so with 3 guitarists now left in the band I volunteered to play bass since I was used to playing guitar with my fingers from taking Classical Guitar lessons. Of course this was "Knock & Know All" so I had to use a pick but that didn't last long.

We never played anywhere but later on Dan Cormier was in a band with Paul Tones and somehow the name "Salem Road" came up and Paul liked the sound of it so that became the name of the new band. I was doing the PA and Lights for the band with Rob Steen on bass and Tim Kopp on guitar. We played a few gigs including Pickering High School twice but that was about it.
