Quantcast

Like at my shows, I encourage you to talk to me.
I'm surprised a lot at what I hear. I'm not out here on any misguided attempt at stardom. I love playing for you. Like Utah Phillips used to say, "I'm trying to make a living not a killing"

House Concerts In Your Home

Yep, I'll come and play at your house. Doesn't matter where you live, I'm always setting up tours. Take a look at the schedule and see when I'm in your area. I am a road warrior, so don't be shy. If you don't ask, I can't say 'yes'. The folks at Concerts in Your Home have been putting on shows like mine for years. It's pretty easy and we'll all have a good time. - Mike

"You measure a democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists." - Abbie Hoffman.



"The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don't have to waste your time voting."-Bukowski


"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act" - George Orwell


"In a mass marketing culture, a revolutionary song is any song that you choose to sing yourself." - Utah Phillips


When Woody Guthrie was singing hillbilly songs on a little Los Angeles radio station in the late 1930s, he used to mail out a small mimeographed songbook to listeners who wanted the words to his songs, On the bottom of one page appeared the following:"This song is Copyrighted in U.S., under Seal of Copyright # 154085, for a period of 28 years, and anybody caught singin it without our permission, will be mighty good friends of ourn, cause we don't give a dern. Publish it. Write it. Sing it. Swing to it. Yodel it. We wrote it, that's all we wanted to do."

"Woody would have loved what you are doing..." - Bob Everhart

"Freedom is what prohibition ain't" - Merle Haggard

"Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows" -Martin Luther King

"Mike Felten owns a record store somewhere in middle America. He also has something most folks have long since given up on - a conscience." BIG O MAGAZINE - SINGAPORE
