Hello Anthony & Michael,

I am going to be doing some edits on this page and I came across this note. I tried reaching out to the provided phone number with no luck. I also sent an email to the provided address and it was returned as undeliverable. I would like to update this page to better reflect Mike's amazing career and all his contributions to Rock 'n Roll that somehow seem woefully underrepresented online. I aim to correct that, as Mike's festivals and music have had a positive impact on my life and people should know the true story. Right now I am trying to fill in content on this page and am sourcing all of my content and references online. If you have any old newspaper clippings, photos, etc. that you could send my way that would be invaluable for me to have quality references to cite in accordance with Wikipedia's policies.

Please feel free to reach out to me at my email (Redacted)

Thanks,
