O.K. Hey friends... this is the part that I am to contribute autobiographically. I will try to encapsulate The Big Picture in a very small space.

I'm having to say, that going back to the moments that I first encountered a guitar in this life, and just strummed it incessantly, at my radical uncles house, and then first heard Jobim's Bossa Nova, and then The Beatles, and how these encounters began events rolling in my life might suffice. Which then lead me through the Boston music scene, and going from being a Rocker to a Folkie, to a Jazzer and back through the loop a few times. Actually, it seems a few hundred times.

But, being as honest and as accountable to the Big Picture as I can be, I am, now thankfully, one of those not so weirdos, whose seemingly getting more normal every day. As evolution tries to "amp up" consciousness and change the way day to day business is conducted here on earth. Which, though painful, is a beautiful thing to see.

I have been a musician for a very, very long time. I remember being a revolting artist in ancient China when performing certain combinations of musical intervals and tones could be punished by banishment or even death.

I then had my last major encounter with politics and "business as usual" here on earth about a 1000 years ago. Since then, living lightly upon the earth as a Gypsy/Bard has seemed to suit me quite well. In general, real talent in any field, give or take some cosmic infusion, can take very much longer than most people realize. And most people don't generally change all that very much from lifetime to lifetime. They just become more of what they intrinsically really are. Which I believe is what the Creator, Infinite Spirit of The Multiverse, truly intended. Integrated Diversity on this little Garden Planet. If we could all simply, one day, be so wise as to let it be just that. It's also known as Phenomenal Entertainment!

So... I'm off about being me. Why not? What else is there to do or be? An ever so humble a contribution to that evolving Diversity Pool. Whatever else you might be interested to know about me is in the music. A list of my credits, instruments that I play, or all of the great people that I have had the opportunity to share a stage or studio with seems extraneous at the moment. That's good. Let's hear from you. Welcome to my little Window-On-The-World. I hope that you enjoy your visit to my Cyber-Parlor-Store-Cafe. Leave me a message. Take me home with you. Invite me somewhere. Let's stay in touch, do some goodness while we're here, share the world with grace and respect for ALL things, and have a blast doin' it.

In All Good Hopes & Thanks
Love Is All
Michael
