[anbocmor]

This guy me look as if I've got rigor mortis when I play.

[Boyland88]

Michael is a Londoner who lives in Brentford. He's as good as it gets on the box but not at his very best here. He needs something to interact with. He played with the Pogues for ages. Says he's making an album this year....let's hope so.

[puzzleluvzme]

I admire this man's talent. His music on this instrument is brilliant.

[Stargreened]

How come when i googled "All Ireland fleadh results" according to wikipedia this guy didn't win in 1991 in fact can't find his name anywhere. I'm not disputing his title but is wikipedia wrong?

[cruddiestcrudever]

Most probably

[monaghanwomen]

my dad and his friend played like you and i am glad to hear the music is still alive

[gfudge76]

[supernan101]

exellent playing,holy shit.wicked.

[chriscboland]

I knew Mike many years ago in West London. I remember playing a St Patrick's night gig with him and Sean O'Shea somewhere daft like St Albans or somewhere. Mike only just made it because he's had to change the gearbox on his mark 2 Ford Granada by hand. Nice to see you again, mate.

[boxmusic90]
