Mike doesn't play on Jeremy?

Wikipedia says that Mike doesn't play on Jeremy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_(song)#Origin_and_recording

since many articles on wikipedia are written by misinformed fanboys, I pose the question to the pit: does Mike play on Jeremy? the wiki writer cited this article: http://www.blender.com/guide/articles.aspx?id=427 as his evidence. It doesn't list Mike. It says someone named Simon Gallup plays but I'm sure I'd remember that name from the liner notes.

I think the Simon Gallup thing is some weird made-up shit, but it could be possible that Stone did all the guitars on the album version.

Well considering i just saw it at hartford, im pretty sure mike was there playin guitar. I was very happy to hear jeremy actually, its one of those hits that they never really play nowadays.

I can see Stone doing them all but Simon Gallup? that's odd.

According to fans on a Cure message board, the Simon Gallup thing is bullshit. Yes, he's the guitar player for The Cure.

I wouldn't consider myself a misinformed fanboy.

Simon Gallup is The Cure's bass player.

I see. Well that's odd. Why would they put that? it's an otherwise interesting and accurate article about the song.

I think Simon Gallup got bored at whatever 7-11 he's working at these days and wanted to have some wiki fun.
