Album Notes

My name is Michael Goldstein, an actor/clown, I have been playing the role of funny man/jester Mickle The Pickle for more than 19 years. I started at age 16. This cd has been inspired by children who have had cancer and children affected by hiv. They are my greatest teachers. From 1994-2000, I traveled around the country playing with children and families dealing with cancer, HIV, ventilator patients, cystic fibrosis, atsthma, Hemophilia, transplants, etc. These children taught me how to appreciate every moment. They taught me that having fun is the best thing to do in any situation. 100% of the first 50 cds sold will go to my favorite pediactic oncology charity called CURE Childhood Cancer. After that, a % will go to charities of my choice: Camp Starlight, Camp Sunshine, The Brain Tumor Foundation for Children, CURE, Camp Twin Lakes, R.O.C.K. Camp and Camp Care as well as The Children's wish foundation. If you like this cd, please tell people about it. I want to be that guy who writes a million dollar check to split between my favorite charities. That means that I must make at least 2 million dollars...I know it is possible. I guess I just have to keep having fun and making sure that the people around me and on the planet are having fun too!
