EARLY LIFE AND CAREER
Born Joseph Michael Furney in Utica, New York-also home to television star Dick Clark, Boston's Tommy DeCarlo and Fran Cosmo, and famed guitar player Joe Bonamassa-Michael's primary interest growing up was baseball. From sun up to sun down, he played "America's Game." At an early age, Michael was also exposed to live music-mostly country artists like Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, and Kenny Rogers-through his father. At home, he would jam Elvis Presley, the Rolling Stones, and Neil Diamond on an 8-track player that he coveted. After the wearing out rock 'n' roll's superstars, Michael graduated to heavy metal via his cousin, with whom he discovered King Diamond, Judas Priest, and Iron Maiden. King Diamond was of specific interest to Michael, as the Danish native was an exceptional vocalist and a highly visual performer. But Michael's switch from baseball to rock 'n' roll/heavy metal didn't come at the behest of his cousin. Rather, Michael saw and became enamored with guitarist Saul Hudson (better known as Slash) after seeing the Guns N' Roses video for "November Rain" on MTV. At that point, there was no turning back for Michael.
