Your questions for Meat

Tina.K. · 20 Jun 2016, 18:45

Meat once said he hated those interviewers who didn't do their homework and asked stupid questions like 'how did you get your name'. I would be very annoyed too if I were him!

Case: let's say one of us is so happy to have the opportunity to interview Meat, what things would you ask him?

Here's a few of mine:
- Is it true a cameraman got severly hurt at shooting the videoclip for 'I'd lie for you'?
- Did they ever tell you what the one million question was, which song, when you were in that programm 'don't forget the lyrics' with Pearl and Patti? (Where you won a huge amount for the Painted Turtle)
- What do you like to do when you're having a holiday and what's your favourite place to be?

- What is that?
- How'd you get your name?

LOL JK

- How would you rank all your albums?
- what's the combination to your vault of boardtapes?

- how do u come up with your setlists?

How did you pick the songs for your new album, and are there any Jim songs left that you would like to do?

In the interests of you not getting shouted out for not having fully done your homework...

There were some aerial shots filmed of the waterfall, the helicopter doing the filming got into difficulties and crashed, and sadly the pilot was killed.

I can't remember about cameramen but I know the pilot died. There was a documentary about it.

WHAT DOCUMENTARY

I must have this in my collection

Surprised behind the music didn't talk about that. Their documentary kicked ass but they usually go for the big tragedies in a rock stars life

LucyK! · 20 Jun 2016, 21:23

It's not actually a Meat documentary...it aired sometime around 1998/1999 and it was one of these "World's Greatest Stunts" type shows, which covered the filming of the I'd Lie For You video.

I remember being at home with my Mum and the TV was on in the background then we realised that I'd Lie For You was playing and I threw a VHS tape into the machine and hit Record (good old days!). It was all about how they filmed the shots of Meat in the raft, how the use stunt doubles, and how the shot the scenes of the hero with the girl hanging from the rope underneath the helicopter over the waterfall.

It wasn't long, maybe 15 or 20 minutes, but pretty interesting.

That's still fascinating contact me immediately if you find that tape

Still searching for that WTTN promo with Meat as a Bond villain as well

What's your favourite non-Jim penned song that you've ever recorded?

Yes drop what you are doing and contact him immediately. Lol.

I would defs to do my research and then still probably ask a stupid question... so i'd have to leave it to the experts.

In thinking about it. I am not sure I could interview Meat. I probably would be better having a normal conversation.. I would feel too intrusive otherwise.

Fire Ball · 21 Jun 2016, 04:10

Set lists take me months of think through the songs and how to keep the tension between the songs and the audience !! I t is like a thin silk thread pulled as tight as you can without breaking the thread. It is also about what people do on stage , Turning, dropping shoulders , turning your back to the audience, all of that contributes to the tension you have to maintain. M

I LOVE The Giving Tree .... especially when you sing it live

And I think you mean Blind As A Bat, another one of my favorites

madagascar · 21 Jun 2016, 04:36

Blind as a Bat?

Vickip · 21 Jun 2016, 04:37

My question for Meat would be movie related ....

Of all the movies you've filmed, which is your favorite ? And if you had your choice of directors to work with, who would it be ?

Or could it be Love You Out Loud which is actually on Couldn'tHave Said It Better? Just a thought. James Michael has written several songs for Meat
