Arrow Mick interview late 1990

I never saw this interview before but its fascinating. Mick is promoting his book while still in the final months of touring in 1990. He talks about his affair with Stevie, him falling in love with a catfish imposter and telling Sara about it, and throwing dildos around the stage in the early days.
You can see he is not happy talking about Chris and Stevie playing their "final" show with the band in just a few weeks. He sees no sense in it at all and you can see how frustrated he is about it.

He talks about Harold (the dildo) and kind of recalls those anecdotes in a humorous or funny way. However when he was asked during the On With the Show tour (2014) if he still kept it, he answerede very serious "Well that's kind of a pornographic question. No, he doesn't exist anymore". He looked a bit upset with that question, or so I perceived.

Hah! He probably hired some cheap stuffy actor wrapped up in a big scarf to do the meet n greets while the real Mick was galavanting around backstage, toilet balls dangling, scrounging around for free coconut oil lube, pickpocketing his founders' fee from the singers' wallets, all while distracting them with his orgasm vest.

I wonder if Mick knows that this is what his fan base thinks of him? That we know he's scum. Or is he delusional, like someone else we know?

I liked how he addressed the ridiculousness of Christine and Stevie recording with the band but not touring. It sounded like he wasn’t especially interested in that idea. Maybe that was the real problem for Stevie.

Its because he sees his lifestyle changing. As a drummer and not writer he never got as big paydays on album sales. Mac albums were not selling great in 1990 either. He needed Chris and especially Stevie to sell tickets and make money touring. He soon would be playing nightclubs with Billy.

Now you can see the Silver Springs entanglement beginning. Poor bitter Mick.
