RIP Meat Loaf. First Prince. Then Tom Petty. Now Mr. Loaf. As chance would have it, I was listening to Heaven Can Wait when I read that he had died. I feel so goddamn old and depressed.
Wow. Jim Steinman last year and Meat Loaf this year. Very sad.

Bat Out of Hell is in my Top 10 albums.
It really has something for everyone.
The title song is a ripper. It has boogie woogie, slow love songs.
Maybe its a little campy but that's ok.......I like it...

A man who understood what it means to be an entertainer. Sad loss.

My signature line is from the movie Roadie... starring Meatloaf as Travis W. Redfish. Never saw it? Find it. Watch it. Love it with me.

"Paradise" was a Karaoke fave for me and a friend, back in out misspent youth. What a voice that man had.
And don't sleep on him gaining 12 pounds by eating the scenery with gravy in the Patrick Swayze non-classic "Black Dog."
A great entertainer on multiple levels.

Everytime our calendar gets bushwacked Bob Saget, Betty White and Meatloaf all die. They ain't dead they are just screwing with your heads. All three are close personal friends of mine and they are fine but carry on however you'd like. The cannibals have come to roost once again and their time is almost up! You may think that I am joking .......I am not.

....and then you get 30 miles away from the venue and your like, "Dude pass me one of your pipes, lets get high."....I hate that! Tastless humour I know but it really isn't. Meat is NOT DEAD. He came on this board several years back and told you guys that he does this periodically. He screws with the minds of all of the cannibal politicians and such. They take one look at him and start licking their chops. He's a big ole boy, you know. Meat is a True Swede and he lives forever(really). The older members here may remember this. Not busting anyones balls just trying to set the record straight.
