I find myself deeply in shock at having to do this for the first time but I agree with Wario on this one. I too would like a DVD set if it includes LAB & MMW
I enjoy the Storytellers DVD it shows the "cheeky interactive" side of Meat that for me has been sadly lacking the last couple of time I have seen him. I know I may be in the minority but I enjoy seeing Meat for the overall experience rather than just the music and the interactive bits added to the experience massively. |

There was less chat in LAB compared to some previous tours and whilst some might like it that way, I like a little bit more than just playing the song as it on the record. It's those bits of audience interaction that make a concert special for me and that's why I'm having such a hard time dealing with the fact that I'm not able to be there to see one of the Vegas shows.

There's no reason why anyone should feel compelled in the midst of attending these to try and describe in detail what happens .. particularly as the shows have been quite a bit different each night. The second night I saw things I'd forgotten .. I have said it's spectacular, done my best to describe the overall show in the appropriate thread .. and if that's not good enough .. well tough. This is a developing show, you have the set list .. it will be different tomorrow. As far as I know there are just 4 people posting regularly from here who have been to the first 2 shows. I think we've done our best Last edited by CarylB; 30 Sep 2013 at 07:32. |

hard for me to get a grasp at all what the show is like. Like what questions were asked and interesting stuff he said.
Does he tell a full story about rocky horror before hot patootie? |

People in Vegas seem unable to grasp what a question is .. saying Happy Birthday or suggesting you should be his date for his birthday are hardly questions. Meat says different things each night .. Answer to your last question, No. There's a show opening. Meat does as he said he would .. open himself up to questions from the audience. He has a stock of photos, video, film etc which is stored on his ipad, and depending on how he takes the show he will show different things. He will segue into the songs in between, just as he said he would. There will be things that surprise and excite. As a whole it will blow your mind, and be quite unlike any Meat show you've seen before. The audience will apparently be unable to grasp what questions are .. this no-one could have anticipated. Meat will deliver despite this. If that's insufficient to enable you to grasp what the show it like than I can't help you. If you expect me to remember and quote everything he says each night, then I can't help you. But Meat will always be interesting. This is not a tour where he has designed a new scenario for Paradise, and will follow that with some modifications. He builds an interactive show each night. To know more you need to see one, as I am neither a video-recorder nor a stenographer. This means you get to a show or wait for a DVD, because you will not see it all laid out on YT. It's special, it's new, it's a product of Meat's creative vision. The producers are very pleased. I believe firmly that he will be doing a further residency at Vegas, and that we will see it developed for theatres as he hoped. I would recommend anyone to save and plan to get to see a show. And to be hugely pleased for Meat that he has pulled off something innovative and very special, and something that opens up a new path for him. |

I saved and saved, and spent a lot to come to Vegas and see this show. I came to have a great time, watching Meat deliver something new and exciting. I am doing that .. not making notes. Meat's been awake until the small hours night after night working on this innovative show. Chris, I wouldn't want to dissect it to death like a butterfly on a killing board even if I could. It's a slice of ever changing magic, it's exciting, it's fun, it's different each night as Meat said it would be. It's to be experienced and enjoyed. |

I think you will, for clearly none of us can help you "understand" .. whatever that means? It's a SHOW .. Meat sings, talks to the audience, uses an ipad to show material on a large screen to augment his talking, sings again. The band play. Dancers dance. What is there to NOT understand?
If you are looking for some kind of transcript of the show ..there isn't one. Meat has SAID .. there's a foundation and the full detail of the show is different every night. It's NOT a tour concert, so if you hope to read our experiences and run your real or mental tapes to find the closest one .. you'll be shit out of luck. It isn't one of any of those shows. It's entertainment!!!! It's a Vegas show put on by Meat .. not a concert. It makes you go wow! .. makes you laugh .. makes you want to get up and dance, cheer etc (if you aren't dead from the neck down) .. And it won't be on YT .. so will remain a surprise for all who go to it |

I don't think Wario was wrong to ask for a review of the content in a review thread, but I do think we're all getting tired of reading the same things over and over again, can we skip on please?

I didn't say he was wrong .. I have tried to do my best to help him and give my review, answer his questions. At least two people have apparently liked what I've posted. Suggest you ignore my postings which seem always to tire you, or ask Chris to stop asking for more information than I can give.

Shooting a DVD of this show is impossible , The show changes every night , So if we shot one night it would not even be close to the DVD the 2nd night. It's like like the review said today Vegas has not seen anything like this before !!
