Guest son of stan Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2015/feb/11/-sp-mystery-of-mingering-mike-the-soul-legend-who-never-existed-jon-ronson I am sure most of you are aware of this story anyway but nice article in the Guardian today!
Ian Dewhirst Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Yep lol. That's a great story. Mingering Mike's legacy is the rarest of the rare because it doesn't actually exist lol. What a tale....... Ian D

Jnixon Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 nice to see Ronson moving on from super soldier goat killers. 1
KevH Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 nice to see Ronson moving on from super soldier goat killers. Mingering Mike did release "you only know what they tell you".Maybe he featured in the Goat book,?
Ian Dewhirst Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Ashamed to say I didn't know about this! You should have done. I put up a thread on here about it a couple of years. In fact, I'm sure you replied....... Ian D
Jnixon Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Mingering Mike did release "you only know what they tell you".Maybe he featured in the Goat book,? he he. Maybe. Your soul records do not exist, neither do the decks your mind thinks they are being played on. Maybe Mike is more real than the record I have in my hand now. Ronson's psychopath test is a fun read. 1
