First the epitome of the rock n' roll tenor sax player, now the epitome of the rock n' roll piano/B3 player.

Shitty couple days for real rock n' roll. RIP Mac. You were the best out there.

I'm hearing he was taken off life support an hour ago.

Hard to take in, to be honest.

God – it’s almost unreal. Bobby yesterday and Mac today. I’m a Mac fan, and he seemed like such a lovely guy. I remember being very moved by how beautifully he wrote of his late wife, Kim. He was a great player. I never had the chance to see the Bump Band live, but feel very fortunate to have seen him perform with the New Barbarians, Bonnie Raitt and the Stones. Love and light to all of those whose lives he touched. He will be missed.

Yes, it does seem unreal. I don't know what to say. First Bobby, now Mac. What the hell. Both such great musicians and guys. This is too much.

I got to see Faces in '72, then saw Mac at a Ronnie solo show at Tipitina's back in the 90s.
A few years ago I sent Mac an e-mail, never expected a reply but behold, the next day in my inbox was a very gracious thank you for the e-mail.

Rest in peace, Mac.

Tough few days in rock and roll.  Saw McLagan and his band in 2012, great time, great music.

Can't imagine how Nick Lowe will deal with this, as a he's a funny fucker who loves a good time (just like Mac, and sober these days). Opening night of the tour...Jesus Christ.
