I guess a few stations are doing this in the states... they pick a few people (via calling in and singing their hearts out) and the ones they pick do a karoake session to meat loaf, the winner of that (1 boy 1 girl) gets to sing PARADISE at the respective meat loaf show!!!!

i got a 1 in 10 chance to be on stage!!! wish me luck!!!

the contest is this sunday (April 3) at the mohegan sun in CT if any new england fans want to come check out the contest, its free to public, runs from 7-9 pm from what i understand.

doubtful... im actually moving to LA this july, i was gonna fly back if i won but obvi that didnt happen.... i am really upset he didnt make a CA date esp with the new song promise.... enjoy the show tho! that place is HUGE.

p.s. if u plan to gamble, even the quarter slots need a ten dollar bill to play, no 5s or 1s!

I'm sorry you won't get to see him :( Hopefully he'll be out on the West Coast again when Bat III comes out.

Thanks. I'm really looking forward to it :)) Right you are about it being huge ... I saw Meat there during the World tour in September 2003, and I couldn't believe how big the arena and casino are !! And thanks for the tip about the slot machines ... I won $150 on a quarter slot machine when I was there last time, and maybe I'll get lucky and win again this time !!
