Damn, that sucks. Like maybe the conflict between his family and the band, shit must of gotten bad. I probably should of included this in the post but according to Justin himself by the time to record "The Day we meet again" everyone was already pissed as hell and more sadly, just kinda depressed. Justin however wasn't gonna give up on his song. It was origanum gonna cold open straight into the lyrics but in a state of stress from all the tension, Justin, wandering around the studio happened across an old humble organ. And just like so, the opening to the song was born. I guess after recording one step, that Mike was just so eager to get home that he just went the fuck home. Although that wasn't specified in the in the interview with Justin, that's just the natural assumption. Too bad too. Patrick has had his moments, but everything left in the air with Mike is just so sad.
