Photo

That seems rather inappropriate for a musician's biography. Can someone provide/find a more suitable photo? BlazerKnight (talk) 08:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can't argue that it's not a tad risqué, but calm down, it's his daughter and it's artsy. Anyway, the photo was added to wiki by the artist himself. Check out the copyright info. If others agree to change it though, I won't protest. --Overworkedirish (talk) 06:25, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the picture is artsy and cute, and no, it has no place in an encyclopedia. This is Wikipedia, not Facebook. What image do we have to replace it? --JaGa^talk 21:23, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Updated. How's that? ;-) --Overworkedirish (talk) 07:34, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What about Snap?

Snap was Mike's early band, waaaay before Candy Butchers. Should this get a mention? Also what about Bangalang? I thought that song got some notoriety in the Boston area. Jamieeng (talk) 21:39, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of Get Him to the Greek?

Can someone add Get Him to the Greek to the list of movies he collaborated on? He wrote a few songs for the movie. I'd edit it in myself but I'm not too good with sourcing (as in my crappy Wikipedia citing skills, not finding sources, as those are plentiful). It is also in the end credits of the film.
