As an integral member of the popular rock band he was able to hone his skills and confidence as a performer, enabling him to become an accomplished and legitimate force on the Canadian music scene. Mif released two records internationally with Slash Puppet, the self-titled 'Slash Puppet' in 1993 on Fringe Records and more recently a 2007 re-issue of the band's critically acclaimed 1989 independent release ("The Demo") entitled 'No Strings Attached' through Sun City Records that garnered accolades on several hard rock and heavy metal fanzines worldwide making it to #7 on Sleaze Roxx's "Top 10 Best" releases of 2007. Other accomplishments with the band include awards for Best Toronto Club Band at the 1990 Toronto Music Awards and Best Independent Video for their hit single "When The Whip Comes Down" at the 1993 Los Angeles Area Music Awards.
