Booked the tickets!! then remembered that I'd booked myself in for a full frontal lobotomy on the same day, and decided to keep that appointment instead

Probably far more entertaining, and less painful.

Well I am going! With a few friends. It's a very low-key affair though, hardly any advertising. Expectations aren't high

I saw him in 1994 at Wembley Arena. To be fair it was a good show and he could certainly belt a tune out. However, the most entertaining point by far was when he came out to the bars of "I Would Do Anything For Love...", stepped up to the mic, spun around on the spot and fell flat on his great flabby arsé. 10,000 people p!ssing themselves in unison is a sound to behold

I take it your not interested in meatloaf, to make life easier for yourself, you could read the headings to threads before you click on them and reply to something your not interested in at all, it may save you a whole lot of time

to everyone else, I will let you know what it was like

A friend saw him last weekend and said that his voice has gone, the backing singers had stronger voices! She wasn't at all impressed.

I saw him in Brithon in 1982 and he was crap then! I've always been a Meatloaf fan but his live performances have never been good.

The band came on playing the build up to Bat out of Hell and we thought it was a warm up group taking the p!ss. After the long intro, Meat waddled on stage and managed to sing only every other word as he "had a problem with his throat". The problem was thousands of fans wanted to slit it! He sounded like that comedian that used to pretend his mic was going on and off.

Funniest bit was the vocals spoken "on a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the wolf etc" As the female gasped out the final line of "And does he love me" a wag in the audience with perfect timing shouted out a loud "No you daft bitch". Everyone was laughing for minutes before they decided to try it again.

Saw him again on stage in Jersey a few years later and that time he had just broken his leg and cam eon with crutches and his leg in plaster!

I've still got Bat and Dead Ringer picture discs in the attic.

Shame, he should retire rather than do an Elvis.
