Concerts

Has anyone ever seen Meatloaf live?
If so how was it?

I probably sing some meatloaf song to myself about 363 days a year.
Nothing like flying along singing Paradise by dashboard lights, or 2 out of 3 aint bad.
 
I grew up in the country where there was no cable. I remember when I got to my Air Force tech school dorm. I walked into the lobby and they had a TV in the corner showing MTV. I was in total awe. I'll never forget that moment or the Tears For Fears "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" video that was playing.[emoji3]

Now I catch my favs on YouTube like B-Man. Queen live at Wembley Stadium is my absolute favorite. Seen it a hundred times at least
Same here Scott, grew up a rural farm-no cable-PBS kid. When I stayed the night with my friend on weekends though I binged on MTV videos. Still a fan girl of some of my favorite 80s bands, many on my playlist. They make the best karaoke songs! In fact, I've been jamming out to Cutting Crew all day, hehe. As for Queen, all I can say is - epic forever. In fact, if I had a time machine one of my stops would be their set at that Wembley.. fo sho!
 
Had this stuck in my head today.


Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt, you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need
Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love
You see the signs, but you can't read
You're running at a different speed
Your heart beats in double time
Another kiss and you'll be mine, a one track mind
You can't be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there's some left for you
You don't mind if you do
Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your will is not your own
You're heart sweats and teeth grind
Another kiss and you'll be mine
Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

Stuck in my head today.

We clawed, we chained, our hearts in vain
We jumped, never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell
A love no one could deny
Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreak me
Yeah, you wreck me
I put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the ground
Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreak me
I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crouching in a blaze and fall
All you ever did was wreak me
Yeah, you wreck me
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
And instead of using force
I guess I should've let you in
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
I guess I should've let you in
Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreak me
I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crouching in a blaze and fall
All you ever did was wreak me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me

1980. London Hammersmith Odeon. Bat out of Hell tour. Front row of first balcony.

First song to last, in the same order as the album with full choreography as if it was a rock opera.

Imagine a 300+ lb Meat doing cartwheels across the stage in a tux.
Drinking a 6 pack to cool down...don’t pull them off the rack, just work your way around the pack.
Encore of Promised Land with what had to be all the roadies in a line of 27 guitarists for the last break.

F’ing awesome!

Damn that would be great to see.

I always wanted to see Meat in concert and regret not doing so.
 
Glad you approve Scott.
I really like that one to.
Told the ball and chain that she can play it when i die and she throws my body on the fire in the yard.
 
Ball and chain has a few days off, so we can go to Vancouver for longer now, so I got us tickets for April 17th to see Celine Dion.
