Why this name?
Have you ever hung out with a bunch of musicians...'nuff said.

Your influences?
I'd say my life experiences most influence my writing. It's hard to write honestly, for me anyway, about things I haven't lived.

Favorite spot?
That would be right where I live now, warm and sunny Playa Del Rey, CA, baby, yeeaah!
Equipment used:
I play a Gibson SG thru a Line 6 Flextone II amp and Floor Board.
Anything else...?
Peace, light & love to you all. Michael
