I'll try to minimize the blocks of text. One could think so, as it could be a natural assumption to make. But look back to May 5, first, when all a flurry came about by Meat's statements which excluded any direct involvement by Jim, which gave way to a barrage of rumors and wild speculations, and that Jim blogged to. Now, one could say that there is much under wraps, and that would be a natural state for entertainment projects especially ones with this many sparks flying out from it, but I also think of the last summer's situation which had the pair in that lawsuit. I will never, never, forget that lawsuit. It is nothing to do with forgiveness, but it is a remembrance of the level of trouble that has arisen over influences surrounding Meat. Out from that came this set of statements from Jim which included that Meat was not to interfere with the show and that it could be called BOOH so long as it was called "Jim Steinman's Bat Out Of Hell". Flurries of rumors flew anyway, about Meat being a part of the show. There are two kinds of rumors. Those are, the kinds that are false, and the kinds that are true. Unfortunately, because we are dealing with something which would naturally exist in secrecy, and which shall happen in the future, we have to wait to discover what kinds of rumors these rumors really are, even with Jim's statements. But, suppose we use the lawsuit as a barometer of probability and say, that those rumors are false. If those rumors are false, and that Meat will not have a hand in the show, and that Meat is bringing up Jim's name in his marketing ploy to appease those who wonder why on earth is this thing called B^A%T#3, one could package this up and say, that Meat is saving face. And if Meat is saving face, is he expensing Jim's in the process? The question is really answerable only by Jim. If Jim feels that the synergistic marketing is to mutual advantage, then so be it, one blends with the other. But if Jim feels that there is a larger more supremacist encroachment on what is apparently now being considered a franchise, Meat could be in contempt of the court order not to interfere. > To promote BOOH the "music cycle" I'd say. > > > > > > Has it been played on other of Meat's tours?
