It is clear by the tone and length of his Instagram post that McLaughlin’s loss was real and deep. He wrote: “They say never meet your heroes…. well, in the case of this guy, that was total bull****. We were only pals for a short time, but I’ve yet to meet a kinder, gentler, more talented soul on this plane of existence.”

He went on, “When we were hanging out, he was a bit of a mess. Searching for something that at that time, he had yet to reach. We sat and chatted for hours about music, what it meant to be a ‘Rock star’, and the weight and responsibility of it all. Tying yourself to people, and the artistic journey that once started and became successful could never be left. ‘Careful what you wish for’ he’d say to me often… he got it.”

You were and will forever be one of the greats…..”
