That 2010 newcastle show was an absolute privilege to have witnessed.

After the vocal cyst had healed and Meat had gone through the vocal coaching afterwards, he promised us he was singing better and more strongly than he had for years .. and he was right. He came back on top form in Casa de Carne, and the shows in Hang Cool were brilliant as you say. I enjoyed them all, and Newcastle was a special night, when he returned there for the first time since he had to leave the stage there in 2007.
He didn't mention here either that he went back to Newcastle to do that penalty shoot-out to raise money for two charities in Newcastle. Such a big heart, such a wish to show he was sorry for something quite beyond his control.
