Oh, I thought you were shocked that I had a good point.

If it's worked in the past, it's worth a try. This is a great album and it should be selling.

But they were also the lead singles so they kinda had to be played as promo, much like Los Angeloser when HCTB was 1st released.

I think that a solo Meat song is the way to go - maybe If It Rains if the rockier ones are gonna be too much for a studio production, but not a duet with Patti as that's what everyone associates with his past albums which isn't necessarily a good thing imo.

Depends if he wants to promote it as similar to the past or a new direction really.

i'd say Running Away from me (as i've really been getting into that recently) but hey it'll probably end up being one of the duet's or Los Angeloser.

Running Away From Me would be really great After what Meat posted,
I doubt it'll be Los Angeloser. But we'll just have to wait and see.

I say let him retreat back into no tweets.

Its better to have slightly less exposure on tv (still millions of viewers) and to put on a better show. Having to keep up on tweets, facebook, this forum, etc is extra stuff that he shouldn't be worrying about....hopefully he's in rehearsals practising his ass off so that he can kill on Tuesday and show everyone what he's made of.

Having said that....the suspense is killing me

Ya but Meat still has to tell her what to post about, or participate in the video tweets, and his assistant could be doing other things that help prepare for the live show instead. Its all speculation, but obviously by the lack of communication, the crew have their hands full.

I disagree with this. She's had two weeks to fiddle with the Leno appearance...one tweet isn't going to kill her or the Leno performance. I miss them.

I miss the tweets too Suzie. And I absolutely agree with you .... hopefully she'll post something about it and the Lopez show tomorrow, just like she did when Meat was filling in for Eddie on the radio show

I just posted the links for both the Tonight Show and Lopez Tonight on Meat's Facebook page.

Don't get me wrong Suzie I want to see them tweeted too.

But if Meat's crew is already overwhelmed with prepping for Leno, they should stick to whatever helps Meat's needs to help him be ready for it. Maybe it will stress Meat out having it announced on tweets?

No, I doubt it would stress him out.

What's the point of a ton of promo if your not ready to perform?? Why is that hard to understand? Based on meats tv performances this year he wasn't ready for them. It's just an opinion based on speculation. I doubt they've forgotten to tweet the update. There's either more important stuff to do or they haven't gotten around to it yet

Yes, although given he has the album featured heavily on his FB page, he may be hoping to catch the attention of people who haven't visited it or don't visit it regularly.

I doubt a quick tweet to remind people is likely to be stress for either Meat or his PA Just a twittered line isn't overtaxing, but neither does its absence suggest anything particularly significant to me. And like others, I look forward to seeing him twittering again :)

In that case it's either do it or dont. He has to be up to the challange. If he isnt, he shouldnt perform.
I'm not an expert on american tv, but the fact even I know about Jay Leno means that this is one of the most popular shows in the US. You cant really hope no one will see it so he can get away with a crappy performance.

yea, Id say his lawyers, guns, and money performance on Letterman was watched by a huge slew of people and got sales of the VH1 storytellers CD shot up.

His last performance on Leno as far as I can ponder was Deadringer For Love back in 1998 to promote his very best of album.

We also gotta say that Leno has lost a huge slew of his popularity since last year.
