Come on then, let's have the sordid details!
It was the Dec 6. 2005 Show at the Hollywood House of Blues. A few of us met up with some friend's of Mac and they took us to the after show party in a private room on top of the Red Rock? bar? I forget the name and I was so excited cause I was gonna meet Mac and it was a cool place with a further private room. The people who led us to the party saw the door was shut and pointed out Mac's coke dealer and said something along the lines of "we won't be seeing Mac tonight". The night had been so much fun, I met some real cool people and thought I would meet Mac finally and realizing he was in some room doing coke a few feet away was crushing. I felt sick to my stomach and let it depress me far longer than usual. Since then my romantic notion of the Bunnymen was killed, I pulled off the Bunnymen sticker I had on both cars and replaced them with Exploding Hearts.
So there is my silly little fanboy sob story. Since then I've heard other stories from fans when someone asked the band where's Mac and they answered "in his room doing drugs".
You'd think he'd had more respect for himself and more importantly his daughters. They're at the age they know what is going on.
I hate to be judgemental and I never meant to be so, but that night has changed things for me regarding the Bunnymen.
Sorry to be such a downer.
