I'm really wanting to hear some of Mikes material. Anyone have any experience with his playing?

hey Bernie,

while he's playing with Chick Corea's Elektric Band now, my only experience with Mike is hearing him at NAMM and through email. he was jamming with Dominique di Piazza when I caught him and I was actually scared. I have never heard 2 cats playing so fast in my life! spooky stuff but a tremendous musician. and he's an electronics wiz!

ps - you can probably find out where to get sound samples through his site.

Thanks for the heads-up, Stew!

I checked his site out and he had a link to cdbaby where his cd's are for sale. Very cool, stuff! I think I'm more into his second cd but both of them look great.

hey Bernie,

I have only heard him play live, so I'm interested in his composition. I'll have to check that out!

Hey Bernie,

I have both of Mikes CD's, he is VERY tasty (hmm take mental note), reminds me alot of Patitucci in his younger years........
