Skor was originally formed by two guys from Detroit, who hadn't previously known each other, and two brothers from Jackson, Michigan, who did know each other. They played shows wherever they could get gigs, which mostly amounted to house parties, but also included clubs like Rick's in East Lansing, Michigan.

Membership of the band changed a lot over time and eventually included seven people, not including everyone who "sat in" for a show or two. Along with the membership changes, came style changes. Basically, depending on when you saw the band, they were heavy metal, L.A. rock, new wave, pop or original. Sometimes they could be all of these rolled into one! Very confusing, but a lot of fun.

Highlights for the band included recording a five song E.P. called "...long way home," see picture at left. Getting tons of radio play on the then fledgling FM radio station WDBM. Having two videos produced, neither of which were ever released. And performing at the Silver Dollar Saloon in Lansing, Michigan when it was still a metal club.
