Both John and Joe have worked a lot with Mike so I put their comments together.
John says:
Mike is a real bookstore hound. I’m sure he checks out the bookstores wherever his travels take him. He studies staff, inventory quality, in- store marketing, customer service while formulating judgment on the overall store. Needless to say, Mike is a great guy to toss around a few ideas. He is an avid book collector as he chooses titles for his beautiful home library, his place to read and write.
Mike’s books on the music business have been on the shelves of Lemuria for quite a while. More recently we have come to know Mike and his sons (Mike 3 and Marty) as they have published the much-loved volumes of Gridiron Gold and Ya’ll vs. Us, and the latest publication, Bull Cyclone Sullivan.
We’ve worked so hard together at Mike’s events that I consider him not only an author and publisher but a fine bookseller on the Lemuria team.
Joe says:
Like John said, we’ve been working with him for a while, but you never know what he’s going to come up with. When Mike calls and says he wants to set up a meeting my attitude is to totally clear the brain – he could say anything. I’m almost a little scared to see what he’ll come up with next, but it’s always fun to work with him mainly because you can tell he’s having fun. (We also really like M3, Marty, Judy, and Janice.)
