    Mike's Interests
General
MusicFrank Zappa... Seriously, no I mean SERIOUSLY gifted. Didn't see things the same way everybody else did.
Frank Sinatra. An original. Overcame real adversity to rise to the top of the world. There will NEVER be another, or even close.
Tom Waits. One of the best songwriter story tellers to ever live.
Donald Fagan. The driving force behind steely dan. Songwriter, Singer, Player. Semi-Pop Genious.
Buddy Rich. The best of the best. Briliiant and demanding, the worlds greatest drummer of all time, and it's more than chops... it's presentation! Suave and sophisticated, yet crude and barbaric.
Jimi Hendrix. Changed the world.
MoviesLe Dernier Combat. 1983 Directed by Luc Besson. A glimpse into a bleak version of the future
Admit it... you love this film too. A Christmas Story,1983. Directed by Bob Clark, it's the Christmas Classic without peer
It's a Wonderful Life. 1946. Frank Capra directs James Stewart to the performance of a lifetime.
William H. Macy delivers yet another performance where he plays a befuddled business man. This time he has his wife capped (by mistake) in FARGO, the 1996 Cohen Brothers Classic.
Television
Books
HeroesWard Cleaver. He's always hard on the beaver, but June takes it in stride like a submissive little house mouse. He always knows the answer to lifes tough questions and when he raises his voice you can hear a pin drop. He's the true definition of the man of the house!

TARAN: I Might Have Been Something


    Bands I've Played With: (reverse order - sort of)

    • Taran
    • The Wild Geese
    • Buster and his Merry Band Of Thieves
    • Boogie Men
    • Lil' Billy Brown
    • The Rob Buck Band (of 10,000 maniacs)
    • Slap Happy Joe
    • Morgan, Altman, Cywinski
    • The Dave Altman Project
    • Rub The Buddha
    • Thursday Society Jazz Band
    • Exhibit A
    • Arpad and The New Sons of the Industrial Revolution
    • Bohemian Fringe
    • U.S.Rocks
    • City Lights
    • Fat City
    • Cold Steel
    • Errant
    • Crossroads

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    • Q: Why did you leave the Wild Geese? It was most popular Celtic Band in the Northeast, the winner of the City Newspaper Critics Choice Award for Best Band in Rochester in 2003, and the Best Irish Band in 2005 according to WPXY listeners. Why exactly did you leave?
    • A:  Somebody had to! Life is filled with twists and turns. Mine turned in this direction. They are a great band and I wish them all the good fortune that life has to offer.

      •  

    • Q: What's a ZENDRUM?
    • A: Click Here... It's too hard to explain

      •  

    • Q: Are the bagpipes hard to play?
    • A: Yes. Imagine doing micro-surgery with your hands and holding a greased pig under your left arm while lifting weights with your face... All while people are laughing at you for trying!

      •  

    • Q: Is the Mandolin Hard To Play?
    • A: It Depends... How fat are your fingers?

      •  

    • Q: Can you play bagpipes at a funeral?
    • A: Yes... but not yours!

      •  

    • Q: Can you play bagpipes at a wedding?
    • A: Yes... but not mine!

      •  

    • Q: Don't you think the combination of Drums, Bagpipes and Mandolin is a little strange?
    • A: Have you met me? I'm a freak show... ask anybody! Everything I do is strange!
