In the midst of all the negativity flying around at the moment, I couldn't keep silent for long.
For me, at ten years of age, making my way with my parents to my first Meat gig at the SECC on a very wet April night, I remember every little thing, as if it were only yesterday!
The spectacle, the buildup, the knowledge that something epic was about to unfold before my very eyes, I had goosebumps all over my body. We still had some 45 minutes before showtime.
When the lights came on, and Meat and the NLE made their way on stage, I was buzzing. With each song, came a new story, a new drama, a new dream world, that I disappeared in. I stood in awe of Meat, commanding the stage, belting out these huge numbers, I couldnt move, I was literally frozen to the spot, in complete and utter amazement at what was being created on stage.
It was out of this world, and whats more, I loved every second of it!!!
Now, some 15 years later and similar number of shows later, that feeling of being lost in the fantasy world, created by Meat still gets me at every gig.
The songs change, the band members change, but there is a magic that is created when Meat and his band arrive on stage.
When a Meat gig is announced, I am there, for in this world of fantasy, of pure unadulterated esctasy, I belong there, I want to be there, and the only place on earth this can be found, is when Meat takes to the stage.
Nothing on this earth can compare!!!!!!
Meat, words cannot properly express my feelings, and I can only say, pure and simply,, thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
