Rick .. I think you have said what is in the hearts of most of us. Meat is an outstanding showman and a huge hearted man who deserves the very best when he visits us here. Let's hope he does in future. This is a forum dedicated to him ..

Not a sad, obsessed sycophant .. just a loyal and loving fan .. and to anyone who doesn't like that .. I don't give a Rhet Butler

Oriel · 12 Nov 2003, 01:57

God, don't start me.

Jayd · 12 Nov 2003, 12:23

Thankyou rick, lets hope the few moaners and groaners on this site read what you put and think next time before anything negative comes from them.

mellis107 · 12 Nov 2003, 15:01

Well put Rick.

mariella · 12 Nov 2003, 15:29

Hi Rick. Good to have you around!
You are right about everything, even about the fact I do not like beer

Thank you for this post!!!

Great day to you,

Mariella

Well said Rick.

I too have been following Meat for over 20yrs and have seen him perform everywhere, including the halls where you could barely get 1000 people. He has given his all at every concert that I have seen him and continues to wow the crowds. I only hope that when I get to his age, I have his energy, motivation and charisma.

I can't wait to see him this Saturday!!!!!!

kaz · 13 Nov 2003, 12:14

really well said rick- words after my own heart!

rockfenris2005 · 13 Nov 2003, 14:29

Hello, Rick - or should I say, JIM STEINMAN. Hahahaha! I KNOW it's YOU!!!

kaz · 13 Nov 2003, 14:32

im i the only one thats going to say huh?

CarylB · 13 Nov 2003, 14:37

It's OK Kaz .. pay no heed .. it's just Ryan having one of his moments .. they occur from time to time ..

As long as they're not nasty we just let them pass .. you'll get used to it :)

rockfenris2005 · 13 Nov 2003, 14:40

Sorry. I was genuinely asking. It seems suspicious. As for my mental frame, it's alot stronger than yours - you don't see me going about with a litanny of animated Meat Loafs!

kaz · 13 Nov 2003, 14:41

okay, just as long as i'm not the one going mad!

rockfenris2005 · 13 Nov 2003, 14:45

Those cartoon Meat Loafs drive me crazy. You go into Caryl's site, and it's like you want you've gone haywire. Truly scary... baffling... extravagantly strange... weird... eerrrlll... it's even made ME haywire! Apologies - for blowing this out of proportion (the topic, and previous posts)

CarylB · 13 Nov 2003, 14:47

No, you're fine Kaz :)

Ryan, you're off-topic and as ever, unnecessarily insulting .. although one might have expected that extravagance would not be something that someone who worships the Lord of Excess would find so difficult to handle ...

LITANY
1 : a prayer consisting of a series of invocations and supplications by the leader with alternate responses by the congregation
2 a : a resonant or repetitive chant <a litany of cheering phrases -- Herman Wouk> b : a usually lengthy recitation or enumeration <a familiar litany of complaints>

And to anyone who sees creativity and fun as a prayer or chant, or who says I'm a sad, obsessed sycophant .. I don't care a Rhet Butler for your view

kaz · 13 Nov 2003, 14:49

okay then
you learn something new every day (i guess thats why i'm stuck in school still)

well now here's a thought..................If you don't like it don't go there.

If something comes on the TV and I don't want to watch it I turn it off - I don't sit there bitching and moaning. So instead of trawling the net for places you don't like go find somehwere you do.

Rick - you my man must be a mind reader you have transfered the thoughts and feeling of so many on to this thread. Mine included

rockfenris2005 · 13 Nov 2003, 14:52

I KNOW WHAT THE WORD MEANS, CARYL!!!
AND I KNOW THAT YOU WORSHIP YOUR ANIMATED MEAT LOAFS!!!
THEREFORE YOU IS SYCOPHANT!!! SYCOPHANT!!! Sycophant... good-day to you. I not speak with you further of this!
