To be honest pretty much the same as it is now, only I was slightly younger! Yes, it is good to hear Meat's songs, but it's not really a life changing experience.

I became a Meat fan when I was 7 so there wasn't a lot of life before Meat!

Before Meat came along I absolutely adored (and still do adore!) Kenny Rogers. Completely the wrong generation for me but my memories as a child are of me sitting on the floor with both of my parents singing along to the Kenny Rogers vinyls and convincing myself that his song "Lucille" was actually about me...

With the exception of Meat, nothing can make me smile (or burst into tears!) the way that Kenny can, and I'm excited and terrified to say that I managed to get front row seats to see him at the end of the month! Absolutely scared to death. On so many levels this is as big as seeing Meat for me...I just don't feel Andy is prepared for this!

Well that is going back a long way as I was a teenager when Meat came on the scene, so I really can't remember as it's soooooooo long ago. But there has never been a performer who has affected me the way Meat does, he really is one of a kind.

It makes me feel really young saying this but I've never known life without Meat as I've been listening to him since before I was even born!

I was 6 when my mom played Bad Attitude LP to me so I don't really remember how was my life before that. But I had also many other bands that I listened but I liked (and still like) Meat the most. It's the voice I kinda fell in love..

My dreams came true when Meat was here last year. I saw him live first time and it was amazing. He was just like you have told me.. Great performer and larger than life.
