To begin with, the boy was raised in Brooklyn. He entered New York University yet dropped out in 1967 and moved to Coconut Grove, a suburb of Miami, Florida. There he opened a 1960s counterculture shop with decorations, magazines, books, records and everything that belonged to hippie culture.

In the middle of 1968, after promoting some concerts in the Miami area, he created the Miami Pop Festival, the largest at that time, which took 80,000 people to Hallandale Beach to watch the acts like Jimi Hendrix, Steppenwolf and The Mothers of Invention. In August 1969, he organized the legendary Woodstock Festival with Artie Kornfeld in order to finance not only the social movements of that time, but also his recording studio MediaSounds. Michael subsequently appeared in many scenes of the documentary film “Woodstock – Three Days of Peace, Love and Music” which won an Academy Award in 1970.
