Thanks for the intel. So, why were they doing FCOL and Good Girls, full blown songs, for a sound check when they had apparently no intention of performing them in the show?

I was under the (correct) impression that most of this was from that stint at the Hudson in '93 that more or less kicked off the Bat II (Everything Louder) tour. When Jimmy returned to the stage.... ahhh. I saw Meat that November in Boston, still early in what was really a magnificent Meat Loaf Renaissance, and its still probably my favorite Meat Loaf show ever. Two hours of wall-to-wall Steinman, full length versions of Bat, IDAFL and Objects. Meat in his cool puffy pirate shirt, long hair and waistcoat. Some random roadie doing Love & Death / Wasted Youth. Classic stuff.

Remember how Meat was the darling of VH-1 for, like, the first 8 months of 1994?
