Fat Mike’s stunt underinvestigation

Mon 29th Mar, 2010 in International News

The Austin Health Department is apparently investigating a show by NOFX’s Fat Mike at the South By Southwest Music Festival.

A representative for the bar has issued a statement confirming that “Emo’s does not condone Fat Mike’s actions, and we do not encourage or condone any acts of stupidity that Fat Mike may perform.”

Performing as “Cokie The Clown” at Emo’s Annex in Austin, Fat Mike’s “stupidity” opened on a seemingly generous note as he served shots of tequila to punters in the front rows.

During the show– which was a topic of debate in the forums last week – Mike told several disturbing stories about the gruesome suicide of one of his friends, witnessing a rape in the mid 80s, ‘fucked up kinky sex’, assisting the death of his terminally ill mother and milking a groupie to make a White Russian.

The show ended with a film of the performance being rewound to reveal that immediately prior to taking the stage Fat Mike had topped up the tequila bottle with his own urine.

Revealing that the act was very premeditated, Fat Mike told gossip website TMZ that prior to the show he had “confirmed that urine was not classified as a biohazard waste and not subject to the risks of legal ramifications of blood, semen, or feces.”
