There seems to be a bit of a tendancy around here for anything related to Bat 3 to be automatically written off as terrible, just because of the problems of that era and Meats feelings on it himself. Some people seem to think that they would be a terrible fan if they didn't hate everything from that period. I think this is wrong. Despite the problems, despite Meats feelings, Meat produced some fine performances during this ear and I am fed up of people trying to take that away from him.

I don't like it because I don't like it, not because Meat said so. He was sick at the time and it really shows in a lot of the performances. It's painful to watch because it looks like HE is in pain. That's not to say it was all bad, but you're lying to yourself if you think that Meat was performing at the top of his game every night. I don't think it's fair to say that everyone who doesn't like that period is biased, because I don't think that's true at all.
A while back (it might still be there, actually), Wario had the Royal Albert Hall performance from the 3 Bats Live tour up on his channel. I thought THAT performance was incredible. Objects in particular, that night, was probably my favourite performance ever of the song. So that quite possibly blows this theory out of the water (in my case, at least) :P I'm not going to sugarcoat a review of something I didn't enjoy, but I will give credit where it's due. I think that that is the mindset that a lot of people adopt :)
