Default Keys

Somewhere on here I read about the keys, the keys are fine , I have said I have dry throat and the Climate in Australia is very very dry which made it harder . The keys are fine just listen to some 2011 you tubes before I went there and did 90 interviews and stayed in that dry climate. The AFL was not not great but not bad bad enough to be boiled in oil. and hung on a tree. I disagree with that key statement. The are fine 95% of the time and the way I sing lower keys make it harder to sing. It doesn't make any difference anymore . I'm done. I will finish the DVD and finish the album ... Perth was my last show . I can't fight anymore.

Hey Meat, I don't think anyone was saying you can't sing your classic songs in key any more, just that if it was getting harder for you ( and we don't know this, only you could answer that), then it would be perfectly okay to take it down a key or two and still sound great.

I'm the first to admit I know f**k all about music generally lol, so i'd be interested to know if the songs off HCTB and HIAHB are sung in a lower key or not. I don't know if they are or not, I only know that what I hear seems to be far easier for you to sing than some of your classics. Of course i could be talking complete bollocks and you have every right to tell me I am!

Meat..... what are you going to do with the NZ shows then? Or are you still talking about last show in Australia..... I hope it's not what your post seems to mean But I guess if that's what you decide, what can we do about it?

Your NZ shows are about to be fantastic, go have a calm down & some sleep, isn't it like, 4am over there?! A new country & some new shows!

That's because a lot of people think they know what keys are and actually don't, it just sounds clever

Pick yourself back up, move on.

Meat, you know you get better support in Europe and the US, and you know how much we love you in the UK. We love you to bits over here. You have a tour scheduled for the next year and a bit, and I know if you take it on you will love every minute of it and you will go out on a high. Don't go out like this Meat, I beg you. You can't let a small minority of people ruin everything you have worked for. If you go out now it will be written that you retired after an embarassing final tour of Australia. It's complete bollocks of course, but that's how it will be written. Please, please don't go out like this. Yes it is time to move on, but it's time to move on to the next and final tour, not to retirement, NOT YET.

That's right, Meat, see what the feeling is like after the NZ shows, aren't they in just a couple of days?

Less dry climate, no one will have anything to complain about there.... if they do I'll come kick em in the shins.... and other places

Meat, please for the love of God DO NOT Quit! You are an icon, a legend, and a role model to so many, including myself. Your music has touched all of us. You have so many amazing fans who will stand by your side through anything. I would love all these stupid arseholes who spew out BS to shut up. Believe they will once something else distracts their small minds.

Meat focus on the positive. Your vocals are amazing, I saw a YT clip from s show a couple of weeks ago of RRD, you sounded spectacular. You give the best damn concerts this World has ever seen.

Please don't quit, and these stupid comments will stop!

"You can't dwell on it. You can't dwell on any of it."

Regards,

Sebastian

Suzie is right Meat, please listen to her and all of us. Talk to us please. You've got to go out on a high, you can't let a small minority of dumb barstards beat you, they are NOTHING. Talk to us.

Meat don't let the Australians get their way. They want you to retire, come on don't give in and give them what they want.

I saw you in 2011 and it was amazing!!!
