It's where he starts (as in the photos Mel's posted), rather than how long he stays in that position Adje.

I think there is always a relevance in what he's doing as he prepares to sing every song, rather than whether he keeps his arms folded or not throughout this particular one. Meat's an actor; he creates a character for every song. As an actor he has a physical stance or movement to summon every character he has created for the song .. doing that brings the character into focus for him, he takes it into every part of his body, becomes the character, is no longer himself. The clearest one for me is as he's preparing for BOOH .. but he has one for every song, although he says we probably won't notice a lot of them. But if you watch him prepare for each one, there will be a position of a hand, an expression on his face, something in his stance etc .. some small thing he does as an actor to call in the character. The folded arms may be the one he used in '78, so using that might help him create that original character as he felt it in '78, which is as Mel says what he said he'd do, and what he delivered

So yes, it is a bit nerdy Warrio .. but you are a self-confessed nerd, and proud of it This time, yes, it's cool you noticed
