I don't have to defend Mike D. So I won't. All I know is that he is the only guy that I know of on this site who records with known celebrities (read his bio), plays live with known celebrities, teaches music, has taught music theory, plays a hell of an upright bass, produces other peoples songs, and has been doing these things for decades. In other words, he doesn't have a day job. This is what he does. He is a mentor here. I've asked for his advise once or twice. He's not above responding to questions about the music business. That's the real deal.
