my bad, forget what I said then.

And yes the name Meat Loaf is NOT connected

and the fact that this is the only incarnation 99% of the people know. Of course noone says it should be promoted as a project he's INVOLVED, but he should be mentioned quite prominently. Would be the same if you promoted Mamma Mia without ever mentioning ABBA.

that seemed to be a misquote. To be honest, I think Meat Loaf has better stuff to do than making up stories about a musical that might never happen. If you like it or not: With the CdC tour and the upcoming album he gets 10 times more publicity and attention than the BOOH musical might ever get, especially at this point of time.

to be honest, I think neither, the reporters nor the readers will care. MAYBE at some point when/if it actually opens, but then I'm sure more research will be done. At this point of time it's only a few Steinfans who are bothered by this.
If I wrote a story on a musical that might happen some time in the future, I wouldnt care that much for background facts either, I'd use the time to research more important facts about recent news that people actually care about.

sadly, I agree.


BY THE WAY

just got another bunch of hatemail from Pork Lardington, apparently he's reading this thread. He liked how you "shot me down about journalism".
Apparently he cant make a difference between his usual hate-rants and a proper discussion among grownups. *roll eyes*
