Michael is another performer I first met at Winfield. He usually plays barefooted, and that year he had his hair bleached a bright yellow blonde! He has mellowed a bit since I first met him, but his feet are still bare and his guitar work is still brilliant. He has been on the road a bit more lately, sharing his amazing talent as a composer and guitarist. It's easy to be fan of Michael's music and talent. Alaska Wheatheads, please note that he will be in Wasilla in August of 2006 for Acoustic Alaska Guitar camp and there will be concerts in Alaska, too! LuAnna 17:17, April 14, 2006 (AKDT)
