A near virtuoso in his field Mike Turner has tuned some of the most classic riffs in canadian music. The former punk band mainstay Mike has done what millions of other guitarists are trying to do right now. He has innovated and re-incarnated the dull drab rock tunes we hear today. He claims to be heavily influenced by bands such as the "Sex Pistols" and "The Jam". He spent a lot of his time firing off punk tunes on his guitar but when Our Lady Peace began to take shape in 1992 he took formal lessons. -Mike Turner happens to be the web-geek of the bunch, -Mike is the oldest member of OLP, he is well into his 30's while the rest of the band lies in their late 20's -Rumor has it Mike Turner has been known to pull some nasty practical jokes. Just ask Vancouver's Salvador Dream about their drum set. (see unknown article in MEDIA)

life when I could've been learning to become a better guitarist"
