I posted it without comment because I just found the whole thing so strange. I assume Rolling Stone wanted the interview and Meat obliged, yet it seemed to just kind of sit there. They portrayed Meat in a light health-wise of being not so great and not really doing anything much career wise so why did they want the interview? Meat has future plans he hopes to achieve and is working to get better after his back problems but if he mentioned any of those the writer omitted them and dwelt on the musical and Meat not going while he needs a walker, although I suspect just the travel would be physically torture right now. I really don't get what they wanted here, I assume Meat got an interview request and granted it so he didn't have anything prepared to discuss and was just being gracious and the interviewer showed up unprepared. I can't imagine Meat being too happy with what they printed and I wonder how much was left out to fit the writer's narrative.
