well lots of you prob won't like this...I'm disappointed in Meat....no pun attended to this website....

1.Meat is doing is sales pinch here instead of on his own site...
2.he has a bloody website why doesn't he open it..???

just my own 2 cents.....

I think meats management should let us take over the site and the store...
look at the fantastic work we're doing with
Manic Street Preachers
Moby
Kasabian
Gary Numan
and many many more!

Meat's extremely busy right now. Maybe they're waiting for Meat's final approval before it goes live

I'm very thankful that he's still taking the time to do his Twitter updates and post on here when he can

May have been Meat's site but he didn't run it, it was run by a company which so called specialised in it.

My own opinion was that the site did nothing to enhance Meat as an artist and the majority of members were only there for the ticket presales.

There's another artist which runs their own website but the forum part is run by someone else, you're directed there through a link, this allows them to do their own sales stuff/info etc whilst trusting that the forum is in safe hands. Whatever Meat decides to do I'd like this, MLUKFC, to be the forum, well run and respected with a proven history.

You're right...I've seen both websites run by "specializing in this stuff" companies and just friends/fans...and friends/fans websites win hands down...there is no comparison whatsoever...

And I have a problem believing that any different hired gun company will do any better than it is created here by R., and run by all admins/mods...

Meat's chosen this company to run his official website and I don't intend to comment on it before I see what it will be like, although should it have a forum I hope it will be better managed than the previous one. It does say that the new website is coming, and Meat has posted a message on it:

We're still hopping all over the world. We've done Europe, we're going to Australia… who knows where we'll pop up next. Posters are going up, pre-orders are already available. Keep up with me on Twitter and if I haven't seen you already, I'll be in a town near you soon. To all, Hang Cool Teddy Bear…"

— Meat

So I'll hang cool, respect his choices and decisions, and see what they come up with :)

They spell it correctly now, it was driving me crazy....

A blog which Meat clearly could do himself, YouTube vids like he's been doing, Twitter, a merch store, what more would you need?
