Mike Amato is an American music tour manager, best known for working with Slipknot, Arcade Fire, Green Day, KISS, Linkin Park, Mötley Crüe, System of a Down, Cinderella, AC/DC, Skid Row, Marilyn Manson, Soundgarden, Kid Rock, Daughtry, Daniel Powter, and Godsmack, among others. He also was the interim manager for Type O Negative while serving as their Tour Manager.
A friendship with Vince Neil Mötley Crüe helped Amato break into the business, and the band's manager Doc McGhee offered him a job.
Amato’s first on-the-road experience came in 1987 as assistant tour manager for Mötley Crüe followed by a five-year trek as their tour/road manager from 1989-94. From 1994-95 he was out with Type O Negative as their tour manager and accountant, and then with Skid Row in 1995 in the same capacity. His career stays current and active today.
