I also understand that we do react to things that are said...i wont fault a person for a reaction. We're all human...sometimes i wonder if we expect others to be super human though and without fault. I doubt that is possible for any one.
Ill say this. I have a great respect for Meat as a performer and as a person and a human being like i do for everyone. I also have a huge respect for all that he has achieved in his life. I generally do have a huge respect for a person who has worked hard, done so much and given so much to so many people. I work in a different area all together but I would be over the moon if i can ever do so much for people in my line of work. I try to remember that whenever i think very critically of anyone.

My wife reacts the same when i tell her some of the stuff I read on here. It's not your typical "fan" site
However, you will find that there are many fans on here that ARE of the attitude of a more traditional site, where you would find respect for the artist and constructive criticism in a friendly way.....Many of us (and I'm hardly one to talk, having only seen a handful of concerts) have followed Meat his entire career and have been to many, many shows. And I truly look up to those who always look to the positive and give Meat the benefit of a doubt you would give your brother or mother. In any case, great to have more like minded people liek yourself on here, and I'm glad you mentioned it :)
