Had the pleasure of meeting Michael in Vegas back in '01 or '02. I was able to look at his portfolio, and he has an amazing eye.

MW is one talented dude but he is also one great guy.

It's been an honor to work with him on many occasions, and thru the years, it has been a pleasure to see his work get better and better. He is really building the "body of work" many others only crave.

Micheal is a guy that doesn't have a problem sharing good vibes and I am a great example ...

Dude hooked me up big time this summer with recommending me to a management comopany out of San Diego (Slightly Stoopid, Pepper) ...

That led to gigs (I do concert visuals/video screens etc) at Santa Barbara Bowl, Hard Rock in Vegas, Roseland in NYC and places like Red Rocks, these are all within the past month, these are places I have been DYING to work at ...

And as you walk around back stage at Red Rocks, I got a chill seeing MW's photography hanging on the wall next to the biggest and best in his field ...

Michael if you are reading this ... thanks for everything, brother. Well wishes on the gig they wrote about ^^^^ wish I could make it. Missed ya in NYC last time around, will miss ya in Telluride.

U da man. nuf said.
