Fat Mike has seen some shit. Dude has been rocking out with punk legends NOFX since the ’80s, and he’s picked up some crazy stories along the way. When he actually told some of his tales at a recent SXSW performance at Emo’s, it got him banned from the venue. Also he peed in a bottle of booze which he then served to the crowd. So that probably factored into the banning as well. Fat Mike performed the show as Cokie the Clown, so when the Punknews writer Joe Pelone, reached out for an interview about the night, it was suggested Mike do the interview as the alter ego. Here now is an e-mail interview with the clown.
