Mike started playing the piano but left it for baseball.  He played saxophone next but left that when he discovered the guitar. Then one day he played the bass at an impromptu jazz gig with his piano playing friend Kevin.  In way over his head and just making it up, he realized that the bass fit him best.  He got an upright (Ella) and a Fender Jazz (Debbie) and lives in the basement now.
