Zutons man on coke and rehab

The Zutons' Dave McCabe has criticised those who go into rehab over cocaine, telling The Star that drugs are everywhere in the music scene.

The Zutons' Dave McCabe has said he thinks it's a bit girly, or something, to go into rehab with a coke addiction. Which offends me, as I was thinking of going into rehab for my coke addiction. My Coca Cola addiction. Didn't see that coming, did you?

Anyway, according to The Star, Mr McCabe said all of this: "Drugs and bands go hand-in-hand. All those stories are true. But anyone who goes to rehab over a bit of coke is a bit of a knob. It was quite a shock to hear the guy from Keane was getting treatment. It was rather mystifying. Whenever we've seen them he's been the same so there were no signs. I'm afraid drugs are everywhere, though. Loads of lads from around where I'm from are doing them. Sometimes you do it and like it. It's re-creating the natural high you get when you're on stage. But it's getting to the point where someone's head will explode so everyone will have to stop taking them."
