From New York City, Michael Fernando Buchalter has been playing the bass guitar since the days of disco; he was at one time known as the Boogie King of NYC. He finally saw the light at a Rossington-Collins band gig, and with the help of a little "Green and Jack" has been playing that down home, southern fried boogie on his four string Fender twanger ever since.

"Chains ain't going on without a bottle of Beam and a "Bim" for later, and that's final!! I'm from New Yawk, Dammit!" .
