As the lead singer and guitarist of local pop-punk trio 5606, Eric “Venom” Ventimiglia has got the punk rock star shtick down: Hardcore alias? Check. Skintight skinny jeans and leather jacket? Check. Bleached, spiked, skunked-out hair? Check. But the buzz that 25-year-old Ventimiglia and his band mates Kevin Kash and Andy Warpath have been generating around the small but tight-knit local circuit is about more than his good looks, and seems to be spreading. 5606 is currently on a statewide tour playing the likes of the Hollywood Roxy and 2010 Warped Tour. Still, their many Bay Area fans will be glad to hear they’ll be making it back to Saratoga Rec Center on March 27 for one of their signature, mosh-heavy all-ages shows. Rock on.
