Torres met Alec John Such while playing with a band called Phantom's Opera and it was this friendship that led to him joining Bon Jovi.
When Jon Bon Jovi, the lead singer of the band, approached Torres, he was put off by the fact that Jon was 9 years younger than he was.
He said it was Jon's charismatic appearance and watching him perform that attracted him to join the band.

In 1996, Torres married Czech-born model Eva Herzigová in Sea Bright, New Jersey.
