Is that instead of someone > playing the traditional Karla role? I know he had critical > problems with the girl playing that role during the Three > Bats Tour. Maybe this is his solution. I think reinstating Patti, who looks less like a high-school cheerleader than Aspen Miller was the solution after the 3 bats issues. I think the comment in the recent review is more to do with a readiness towards the vilification of that which could be (mis) construed as potentially sexist in british public life (especially through the media) and a simple predjudice toward the idea that those of pensionable age can be sexually active. I'm sorry, but Patti doesn't look like a twenty-something or teenager. A 40 soething and a 60 something might raise an eyebrow, but its not that pervy and is more an indigtment of meida culture and dominant societal attitudes than Meats show. I did think Aspen was probably pushing it a bit far though to tell you the truth. Just wasn't really believable, I think Patti is - well as believable as any beautiful woman of whatever age wanting to snog a sweaty, aging Meat-loaf in every city on the tour anyway.... | |
