Introducing Mike "Cheez" Brown, artist manager, entrepreneur, restauranteur, and tattoo shop owner! He has managed or worked with Sublime with Eric Rhome, Rage Against The Machine, Chester Bennington, Big Time Rush, and Slash among many others. From humble small-town Indiana beginnings to the bright lights of Los Angeles and Las Vegas Mike has led a life following his passions and making his dreams come true all while keeping his humble Midwest connections.

He shares stories about the artist he's worked with and some of their wild experiences in Strip Clubs. We also talk about his salon Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and his tattoo shop (founded with Grey Daze member Sean Dowdell) Club Tattoo ( locations in Phx, Vegas, and SF)

How did he get Rage Against The Machine to reunite and what caused them to ultimately break up again?

How did the Sublime reunion with the son of original lead singer Bradley Newell (who died in 1996) Jakob Newell for Coachella 2024 come about?

What is Mike's favorite Strip Club song? And how did he get the nickname "Cheez"?
