rhymeswithvenus History




Although it may seem like we dislike or even hate Scott Rector in this article, we don't. Everyone in the band fully understands why Scott quit and we support him all the way in whatever he decides to do.
Remeber Scott... R.W.V. loves you...


rhymeswithvenus was formed in the summer of 2001 when now singer/bassist Lee Horton made friends with a drummer down the street named Scott Rektor. Lee(Then Guitarest) would walk over to Scott's house every now and then and jam with him. Later that year guitarest/singer Josh Salvo was added and Lee gave up looking for a bassist and started playing bass himself....rhymeswithvenus was complete...or was it? Yes it was....Or was it?

The band's drummer did not seem to take the band to heart and would never practice so Josh and Lee were forced to practice in Lee's basement with no drummer. So when a gig came up Josh and Lee jumped at the chance to finally perform and what happens? Scott decides he doesn't want to practice, at all...then he quit, this put Lee into a great sprial of depression he truned to drugs, booze and cheap sex... Josh tried to commit suicide on many occasions everything reminded him of what he could have been. The band then asked Taylor Kernohan to play for them until they found a new drummer being as Taylor was already in a band. This seemed to work out fine, Taylor became the bands permenent drummer... and everything was going great... they played their first show at Laurier and it went really well. Everyone was expecting so much from this little band named *rhymeswithvenus*. Then the unspeakable happened ... R.W.V. lost another drummer... Taylor wasn't seeing the band as fun anymore and went his separate way... which was fine... so now Josh and Lee are looking all over the London, Ontario area.. for a new drummer... could this be you?... we sure hope so...


So you should expect something from rhymeswithvenus soon, don't expect much, but expect something.
