I've received three e-mails from musicians in the last two weeks assuming that I was Mike Wolf, the Associate Music Editor for Time Out New York. Frankly, I'm flattered that someone could mistake my musical ramblings for those of a professional. Apparently you can reach "that" Mike Wolf at music@timeoutny.com. I'd be more than happy to review any CD that you'd like to send to me, though!! Seriously! :-)
It should also be noted that I'm not Mike Wolf who currently produces animation for "The Simpsons" and was nominated for an Emmy for his work on "King Of The Hill." I'm also not Mike Wolf, author of horror short stories. I'm certainly not this fella.
I am however the Michael Wolf(f) who was Arsenio Hall's band leader. No! Really. I am!
Posted by mikewolf at May 05, 2003 05:26 PMYeah, I get confused for the other Meredith Missroons all the time. It's such a drag, especially since they're all ex-cons.

Posted by: D'Lish on May 6, 2003 10:11 AMDamn! Had I known you were so famous I definitely would have gotten your autograph this past weekend. Maybe even a couple of them. Why is it I'm always a day late and a dollar short.

Posted by: nicole on May 7, 2003 12:09 AMActually, Fred the Former Mail Boy recently asked me if the Mike Wolf music critic was you. I honestly didn't know what to tell him since I'd no idea of the publication.
Posted by: Meredith on May 7, 2003 09:00 AMyou may wish you worked at timeout. one day every week or so, it's casting call for photos. otherwise known as "frequent elevator use day".
Posted by: gak on May 7, 2003 11:35 PMI was actually going through some old Time Out New York music reviews, looking for snarky Stephin Merritt reviews when I saw your name and thought, could it be? I was about to e-mail you when you posted, dashing all my hopes. Ah well. So goes life.
