Mike (a.k.a. "Turn Down Dude!") – Lead Guitar

Mike grew up on the mean streets of Western MA.  After being implicated in the great cow tipping caper and keeping his mouth (and other things) shut regarding the 1985 corn-smuggling debacle, he decided to start playing guitar.  He has amassed an unbelievable knowledge of music through formal and informal training.  Who knew it would lead to playing in the highly respected world of local cover bands?!? 

Mike has played with the likes of bands such as: Bad Little Kittie, Syren, Cage (R.A.T.M. tribute band), Two Guys Named Joe, and Decades, as well as many solo and acoustic projects.  Finally he hit it big when asked to play for Factory Defect--a musical place where even he might sound good (THANK YOU B.A.C.!!!). Says Mike, “I couldn’t believe it! The phone rang and at first I thought it was one of my friends playing a joke!  Then I recognized Matt’s voice from that episode of Behind The Music. I knew then my life would never be the same!”
