Mike was born of a heroin-addicted mother and was put up for adoption. His adoptive parents divorced when he was seven, at which point he began dividing his time between their separate households. He met Billie Joe in the fifth grade, and ended up working with his mother at Rod's Hickory Pit. At fifteen he rented a room on the side of Billie's house. Though he & his ex-wife, Anastasia divorced, they are still good friends, and he visits their daughter, Estelle, as often as possible. 

Mike mainly plays a Gibson G-3 bass, but he has recently been using Fender '66 and '69 American Standard Precision basses. He has also used a Fender '62 Vintage Precision bass. Mike uses a Mesa/Boogie "Bassis M-2000" (MB2000) amplifier through custom made 6x10" and 1x18" Mesa/Boogie cabinets, custom made yellow Dunlop .73mm picks, and Ernie Ball strings.
