Well after seeing meat at Newbury on Saturday I have to say I was totally shocked and gutted to see that patti was missing. I have been a devout fan of meats since the early nineties, followed him all over and consider myself a mega fan but also a fan of patti's too. She is as much of the live experience just as meat is in my opinion. And personally although the two new ladies did a good job it just looses a bit of shine for me. I was greatly disappointed. However meat was in fine spirits and I thought he was far better than he was a couple of months or so ago when I saw him last (and my final patti show).
I wish patti all the very best, she is by far the best vocalist meats had with him (in my opinion) and I hate that it was all done so suddenly.
I will always love and support meat and be a fan til the end but I think patti's legacy in the NLE is a huge void to fill and I'm not sure it will ever be...
