I can honestly say, Meat's music has been the soundtrack to my life.
I was about 11 or so when i first heard about Meat, through my big brother, who's a massive Meat fan, making me watch The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I TOTALLY fell in love with Meat then - or Eddie, his persona in RHPS - he was everything i wanted in a bloke, a biker, longish hair and larger than life :P . It was then that i told myself i'd end up marrying a guy like that.....(OK, i was wrong...but hey...there's still time!!!)
The first time i ever listened to BOOH album, i was doing some housework for my sister, and found a tape and just stuck it in the player, not knowing what was on it, and when i found out it was Meat, was just completely blown away. I thought it was fantastic, and ended up 'borrowing' the tape of my sister. From then on i played it ALL the time.
When i was pregnant with my boys, i played the Dead Ringer album everyday, and i used to put the speaker headphones on my bump, so the boys would get a taste of things to come. When i went into labour i took that album and BOOH with me to the hospital, and when the boys were born BOOH was playing. It was one of the most emotional experiences of my life, and Meat was there to share it with me.
I really hope Meat has a fantastic birthday, and he gets everything his heart desires. I hope the coming year brings him joy and health and happiness. And i hope Meat remembers that he is only as old as the person he is feeling!!!!!
Much Love to Meat,
Heat
