Michael's Story
Life
Alrighty, then. Went to Indiana
University in Bloomington, studied
music. After freshman year,
switched to Berklee College of Music
in Boston, brought Chet Cahill and
my brother, Brad, along with me.
Studied and performed in Boston,
taught at Berklee for 3 years, moved
to San Francisco with a band called
"Booga-Booga". Traveled,
performed, daughter Tess with
Carolyn 83'. Married Valerie in 1986.
Two sons with Valerie, Miles born in
89', Zane born in 92'. Perform in
comedy act "The Fabulous Bud E.
L...Expand for more
uv Show". The act was a bunch of
young guys acting like old burnt out
lounge performers. Now we ARE
old, burnt out lounge performers!
Still having way too much fun playing
music. I also run a production
company doing sound, lights, and
backline for corporate meetings and
concerts. I am very thankful for the
musical opportunities Whetstone &
band director Les Susi afforded me.
Some great musicians in my class!
Still my favorite quote for the musical
lifestyle---"Whenever I go to work, I'm
going to a party!"
