dunno... somehow, I don't think Bat could have been what it is without (someone like) Meat... and let's face it... there's only one of him... (no offence, but that is more than enough, right?? lol)
The songs are larger than life... so are the performances & vids that go with them... and I don't think anyone else could have given them life the way Meat did...
