Meat,
Please don't let the trolls get you down! I know that the
vast majority of the people on this board and (perhaps more importantly) of your fans in general know that you put all you have in you (perhaps too much for your well being, at times) into each performance. I have seen you in concert more than once when I have actually feared that you were going to harm yourself due to the effort that you were putting into the concert. As for those who say "half-hearted", scr*w 'em, they have no basis for their words apart from just plain malice. On the other hand, please understand that we all care about you very much and I must stress to you that you must take care of yourself. Long term, your health is much more imporant than playing 7 dates in 10 days. While it's true that I would be sorely disappointed if a show that I were to attend was cancelled or shortened, your health over the coming years is more important. Please know that many of us here care about you very much, you don't need to worry about disappointing us- we go to your concerts for the total effect that is "Meat Loaf", not every tiny technical aspect or counting each minute of the set. Please take care of yourself as you undertake this European tour. (Hopefully the Yankees can have things safely in hand before you go overseas!
