| Well, I like Bruce a lot, but I do feel it was a fair comparison. He was painfully flat at times during the Glastonbury show (not just hoarse, but out of tune) and yet all the reviews over here in the UK called it a great show. And you know what? - I enjoyed it too. I thought he gave a great performance, played the songs the crowd wanted to hear, put 100% into it, and had a great live band. Of course, if I said all that about Meat (when it's often equally true) I'd be called a Loafer and dismissed as not having a clue what I'm talking about.
