From Peter McGough on MD forum:
As regards Kai I'll repeat what I said earlier. Him being out is a big shame for the fans.
Unless he's sick to the point that he can't stand he should go out and pose. Even off he has an extraordinary physique and he owes it to the fans who paid for tickets (and its ultimately the fans who drive this industry by buying tickets, mags, supps, apparel etc.) to perform. And the promoter probably paid big bucks to get him there. He walked onstage so he could pose onstage. Say's he'll be at the seminar ...... to sell photos to fans who didn't see his physique. Christ I wish I was there.
Sort of a stupid comment. If he is ill, he is ill. So, even if you have the flu, but you can stand, you should go out there and pose?
