Why is he referred to as "Mikey"?

Because he's the little bitch in the band, like Richard Cunningham is here in Milwaukee; which is why we call him Ritchie.

Funny?

I'd never heard him referred to the moniker until "Live Without A Singer" when Spam started calling him "Mikey."

He has a name?!?

Fuck, I thought he was bassplayer? Of course that's an insult to bassists everywhere!

I have no idea why he is called Mikey and who cares? Go talk about "Mikey" on his website!

"Short Fat Yes Man" was too hard for EVH to pronounce after 10:00 in the morning.
