He struggled on BAAB and YTTW imo, because, as always, he struggles with his timing (i.e. dragging on words for longer than he should). I honestly thought he was great last week. > That doen't mean it still wasn't a great show with the > band, the lights, the pyrotechnics and gizmo's happening, > plus the people you are with, alcohol etc etc etc. The > concert has to be taken as a whole. > Amen to that. The band, as alway, were brilliant. The 'banter' was hammy, as always, but OK. The alcohol was expensive and didn't seem to have much of an effect - not good. That said though I let my mate buy several turbo shandies (half lager/half smirnoff ice). > If I went to a Meat Loaf show purely based on his voice, > then I wouldn't go, end of story.

It's a show. It's more than his voice. As I said before I went in, I didn't pay to see Meat sing per se, I paid to see some of my favourite ever songs sung by the artist that, on the whole, the songs were written for. | |
