The Mac Intervention Thread

Postby withahip » Thu Jul 03, 2008 3:15 pm

We need some bold ideas here folks. We need to somehow, while making clear he is the greatest singer ever in the greatest band ever, do an intervention with Mac.

This may require guerrilla tactics such as hitting the official board with synchonized watches starting new threads which express worry about Mac's voice, perhaps showing up at that B&B Opening and getting Will on board. Getting the stage crew to substitute a lighter brand of cigs and telling him he needs to run back to the bus himself to get them.

Other ideas are needed. We have almost four months before the NYC show!!!

I say the band sacks him and hires Win Butler.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Funny thing is, Will is getting a right fat bastard, no one says owt about that. If those fingers get any more sausauge like, he won't make some of those chords.

I didn't mean it as an attack. I see how it could be taken that way. I thought finding humorous ways of doing an intervention could help alleviate the pain of watching him destroy himself. You know, laughter is the best medicine kind of thing. Finding humor in the absurd and painful makes it easier to deal with.
And we have been talking about this for awhile.

I think that's cause:

A) Will is still hitting the chords. You know if he starts fucking up there will be 12 threads on this forum about it.

and

B) Not all of us look as good in our emo pants as we used to.

I think his voice is so emotional an sexy....although far from the incredible one he had once,but he might do something to support it;a friend of mine is a tenor and he keep on study with a voice training teacher,he doesn't speak or sing the day before the show ,moreover there are respiration's exercise very useful and in emergency some homeopathic remedies help.Certanlly Mac knows these device,it's only a little revise. :idea:

Could someone close to Mac PLEASE step up to the plate and slap the hell out of him and tell him to straighten his ass up before he ends up like Elvis...dead on the bathroom floor? That would be such a waste.
