The average Loaf fan appears to believe that the only way this musical will be a success is if Loaf is involved with it. How many of them actually know what it is about? What Neverland is? Most of them want Loaf involved because the are rabid fans of his and thus claim it will fail without his involvement. Tanz was a success without Loaf or Bonnie Tyler's involvement even though it contained songs of theirs. Sell the show on its own merrits... not on the fact that Loaf's name is associated with the title. Seriously the best thing they could do is subtitle the show Neverland or Adventures in Neverland. Let people know it is not a Loaf musical upfront. Fans of the music will still go to see it. Personally I'd still prefer to call it Neverland... it is a much better title for the show. Unfortunately Jim is afraid the show won't sail on its own merrits.
