Aspen Miller from We Will Rock You fame. I wasn't going to post anything but she made the post public in her blog this afternoon. Kasim announced last night at his solo show they only literally just found her that afternoon and she was the 15th girl they auditioned. They really have been trying hard to find the right girl and I do think Aspen will do a great job. Everyone should give her a chance.
I'm not sure if the blog is public to all but here's the link if its allowed:

Exellent! I'm glad someone has been found. I think she's quite hot aswell...... let's hope she sings great. She seems like a great choice so far!:D
Thanks for the news and link. I've never heard of her either but I wish her luck for the upcoming Bat 3 tour.

A good choice. But like the most, I will miss Patti so much, but a good choice.
Thank you for the news!!!
Never heard of her but wish her lots of luck and hope to see many concerts with her being a successful lead singer for Meat Loaf

She has a very nice young girl's voice. Unfortunately it's not a "powerful" female voice like that of Patti. With that said, I wish Meat and her the very best. It'll be interesting when the live shows take place how the public (and the critics) will react to Meat "molesting" a 27yr old who looks like a child, during "Paradise".
RadioMaster

not a bad choice.
IŽm curious about the duets like drfl, paradise or even what about love with her.:D
Anybody knows if sheŽll be at RAH?

If you listen carefully to her demo...you can hear the potential for Meat's duet...at least I am being VERY optimistic...
From her blog it looks like she WILL be at RAH
Thank you Jen, for letting us know so quickly.

I could imagine that they may change the paradise performance a little bit, without the making out, but something else, new.
WeŽll see...the future ainŽt what it used to be :))

Fantastic voice and she looks great too - very good choice!
Welcome Aspen!:D
I'd assume she'll be at RAH as it says on her blog that they're coming to the UK at the end of the month for promo. To be honest though, (and don't all dive down my throat with this one...) I would have thought he'd bring her to RAH, not only to get a show in before "proper" tour starts, but I can't see him doing a whole show with CC doing the lead female vocals on every track...

I don't think anybody will jump down your throat for sayin it...I couldn't imagine CC handling some of the lead vocals...nice background singer...but...

Yes we should welcome Aspen, it must be hugely daunting for someone to step into the shoes of a wonderful singer and person who has made the live experience of a Meat show even more thrilling. We all love Patti and hold a special place for her but we should welcome Aspen aboard, seeing as she's gonna be with us for the next 2 years! :D

btw.. i think it's GREAT that she was in WWRY as some fans on board have seen her perform... and i think that ... in it's way... kindly paves her way a bit into the Meat experience...

Ageing Bat
17 Sep 2006, 21:44
There's nothing wrong with an age gap!! My husband's 2 days younger than Meat.... and I'm still a spring chicken! (well almost!)
Anyway, I digress...... I'm sure the crowd at RAH will do their absolute best to welcome Aspen. She's got a tough act to follow, but with encouragement and support she'll get through.
I wonder how the rehearsals are going, she's sure got a lot to learn before RAH gig next month! :D
Spot on, and I defend the age gap thing too! Bring on the older men!
AndrewG
17 Sep 2006, 21:47
Bring on the older women too! LOL
I've always opted for the older man!! :D ;)
Who??????
Mmm... she never ever can replace Patti....
Is this girl famous, can she sing, i doubt if she even can come close to Patti... But lets give her a change (damn... i'm starting to look like a soft guy over here.. pfff)
Still, the comple idea makes me sick! No more Patti.

How do you know she can't replace Patti? Wow, it's either you can see into the future or you have some exclusive infomation your not sharing with us. I'd love to see it.
Way to be supportive, well done Tim.
I think people need to stop looking at Aspen as the "Patti replacement" and start giving her credit as a singer in her own right - give the girl a chance before she "makes you sick"
May I remind those who are now jumping up and down about age difference that Patti herself is "just a few years" younger than Meat?

getting personal?! :shock: The media crucified Meat's performance with Kat McPhee, saying he looked like "a dirty old man", and that was only on IACBTMN. Meat is almost 60 yrs old, that's a fact. And nothing wrong with that. But the way we've seen Paradise performed, will be "interesting" to say the least with Aspen.

Patti is not in her 20's and doesn't look like a schoolgirl. It's not about age, it's about perception. I didn't see the American Idol performance as "lecherous" but a lot of others did.

Well you guys can argue all you want but I ain't letting anybody or anything (ie media) spoil my enjoyment of this great music. This fussy attitude is exactly what Meat was referring to in his recent comments about the fan websites and to be honest I totally understand that because I don't see anything like this going on over on the Springsteen boards etc...
Going through the post that was found by Jennifer it appears Aspen is well aware of the fact it will be tough to fill in this place, that was taken by Patti this long.
Patti is Patti and we will remember her time with Meat with love and joy. Aspen is Aspen and we will be able to tell soon that we saw her on stage with Meat.

anyroad... i agree with what someone.. think it was mszee... sorry.. i'm losing my memory... quickasthis... said.. Meat and Aspen aren't dating... they'll be performing together... i have great faith in Meat that all will work out...

Media crucifies everybody at one time or the other...so what else is new?
They have to sell their magazines/papers/shows...
But it is up to us fans to support decisions of our idol and stay positive and optimistic as much as we can...
For as much as Patti leaving is a shock...advent of Aspen is a hope for a new and bright future!!!

??? hey, peoples' preference about what they like onstage cannot be right or wrong...it's an opinion.
I don't care for her voice. But I don't care for most female singers. That's a personal opinion.
That does not mean that I don't wish her well in her new role. I do.
And I wouldn't know what goes on at the Springsteen site, LOL, because I've never liked him either. :cool: To each their own.
can someone tell me the channel meat is on sky tonite
After long deliberation I have to say this...
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MEAT GOING AFTER A YOUNGER CHICK ON PARADISE!!!
Will show all of you young ones what we - "old folks" - are made of!!!

ASPEN MILLER :shock: :cool: :D
WOW!!
As much as I really HATE to see Patti go. Aspen should slightly lessen the blow a bit ;) I saw in WWRY in Vegas and she can most definitely sing :D My only worry is she is young. But i'm sure they'll find some way to get around it. As far as everything else goes, she is amazing. She has the voice, looks and stage precense. Only problem for me is she isn't Patti :-( But I guess that's my problem and one i'll have to get used to :lol: That aside i'm sure she is the best choice. She is already good friends with John and Paul.
Welcome Aspen :D

how does liking or disliking Patti or Aspen (or anyone else who shares the stage with Meat) translate into disliking, or not supporting, Meat? :?
Meat is a bombastic talent. Meat has the right to staff / cast / setup his stage show any way he chooses. I haven't seen anyone say differently. And I hope it's enormously successful for him. For Aspen too.
A new album and new tour are all about marketing. Translated = $$$$. Maybe Marion and Aspen are supposed to appeal to the younger fans instead of old broads like me ;)
But it isn't rocket science to know that what comes across as "sexy" between Meat and Patti could make some people uncomfortable with a 20-something in the role...

Well said Musicman!!!
We all follow the man and his music, me I've been into it for 25 yrs now and as someone who hates change I'm as nervous as hell about it but I'm not gonna prejudge. Meat and NLE have chosen, we gotta put our faith in that, who better to decide on who sings the music than the people who make it.

Meat has been justified in his negative views plenty of times. He has been attacked for his song choices, his voice, and everything else under the sun...on his own FAN SITE. :shock: But I think the admin and mods here do a very good job of keeping it under control. Some of the stuff on other sites is so vicious that I won't go there to read.
Liking or disliking another individual does not equate to disliking Meat. ;)
Every post I've made on this topic stresses that I wish Meat (and now Aspen) nothing but success.

I can understand a few of the comments people have made about future performances of Paradise. Its a matter of social acceptance of what 'feels' right and wrong to see. The way to make it work would be to give her the domonant, I'm in control of the situation role. It maybe better as Meat nears 60 to drop the song altogether, and do something else.
Guess we best wait and see! It is only a month, before we will know ;) and I do not have to be a mind reader to know it will be busy here again after that show.
What a horrible thought!! I cant imagine a concert with no Paradise THAT wouldn't be right!! My solution if it doesn't look pc is i'll take my specs off and then everything looks good!!!
How do you know she can't replace Patti? Wow, it's either you can see into the future or you have some exclusive infomation your not sharing with us. I'd love to see it.
Don't have any information.. but lets face it.. Patti was one hell of a singer!!! Her voice was great, she looked great, she has a ML attitude....
As for now, as far as i can hear and see this new girl, she is just missing something. I've heared the song on her page, watched some photo's... Well.. you can't compare two different people.
Let's hope it works out fine, and wait till the tour is coming.. you never know how it works out.... Then we can say more about her i think... And like earlier was written here... lets give her the credits as an artist.
Way to be supportive, well done Tim.
I think people need to stop looking at Aspen as the "Patti replacement" and start giving her credit as a singer in her own right - give the girl a chance before she "makes you sick"
Do think you are quoting me there, refering to "making me sick"... it just has to do with the fact that Patti leaves... Just loved her.. has nothing to do with the new girl... Just the change of singers which is hard to deal with....

That link didn't work for me (last blog entry it shows for me is from Aug 28th), but nevermind.
Welcome, Aspen.
Ok, I have to admit that I don't like change either, so was quite upset with the news of Patti leaving the band..
That said, I checked out Aspen today when Jen posted the link to her blog and I visited her site. She reminds me of a younger version of Patti in looks, and I listened to the song on her website, and you could tell she was holding back, that there is a huge voice in there wanting out, and on stage with Meat, the 2 should sound very good, I think. :))
I will miss Patti, although now I look forward to seeing what Aspen & Meat can accomplish on the stage together.. :)
One era is over, but a new one begins.. :))

It seems the blog entry has been removed, but if you look at the comments, a friend gives their congratulations on becoming the new female lead with Meat.
I am sad that Patti won't be at the RAH, but I look forward to seeing the 'new girl' and will reserve judgement until I've seen and heard her perform.
Now, I wonder if Patti fancies joining my tribute... lol! :D
Meat asked me to tell you that.. quote " the woman is 28 not 16 and not my daughter!! SHE IS NOT A CHILD!! In movies this age differance happens all the time. We are performers, it is acting. If people have a problem with it, they are the one with the problem"

And paradise and you took: that's an act!!! don't forget that, nobody knows how much an actor she is!!! She looks good, and i will support her! It's said that patti left but hey, it's not the end of the world! Patti will do fine, whatever she chooses to do! That she wants te move on after 13 years, well i can understand that!

i'll assume you're talking re: Paradise?.. and how do we even what Paradise will evolve into this time around?.. i'm a Meat fan only since Bat2.. and in that little time.. over those few years... i've seen that many different stage versions of Paradise... i look forward to hearing about the new version that will be viewed at RAH...
Have I missed something? Ever since Meat did Paradise with Carla DeVito in the 70s, it's been the same more or less...The act has always consisted of a young couple that gets married, and as time has gone by, they've soured on each other to the point where Meat wants either for her to die or he to die because they can't go on this way and his morals won't allow him to break off with her. During the Phil Rizzuto baseball dialogue Meat has ALWAYS passionately made out with his partner, feeling her up, and kissing deeply (we've even seen tongues). This has always been a big part of the act, and with Patti it came across as funny because she being almost 40 and Meat almost 60 it was believable that they were a couple. Unless Meat plans on dressing Aspen in an old lady suit, I don't see how doing this act with a 27yr old would work! Let's forget that it may look kind've sick for a 60 yr old to be making out with and feeling up a 27yr old who looks like a teen...But when exactly did Meat's character marry this girl so many yrs ago that he's sick and tired of her, when he was 33 and she was in her diapers? I'm sorry but Aspen might have a great voice and may be able to pull off songs in the studio with Meat, and maybe even singing duets with him on stage, but I seriously think there's no way the stage performances will ever equal the powerful chemistry that Meat had with Patti. Chemistry can't be created, it just happens, and Meat had it with Patti...They just clicked on all cylinders. Anyone who ever saw Meat and Patti performing on stage together already knows this. I just hope those who go to see Meat and Aspen on stage together don't find out the hard way. :?

I think it's important to remember that in Paradise it is the female who always wins:D
And don't forget about the versions we have seen where it is the female who is getting horny (like when Meat just wanted to play 'name the animal' & it was the woman who had other ideas;))
I think that Paradise will work perfectly with Meat & Aspen, afterall Travis, Aspen hardly looks innocent to me;)

Excellent choice, Aspen was fantastic in WWRY.

You saw Kacie ;)
I know who I saw ... and I also know who I've heard since then ;-)
Meat asked me to tell you that.. quote " the woman is 28 not 16 and not my daughter!! SHE IS NOT A CHILD!! In movies this age differance happens all the time. We are performers, it is acting. If people have a problem with it, they are the one with the problem"

Just in case Meat's reading this I'd like to point out that I have no issue at all with age difference and I am available...! :lol:

lmao!
I may just have a few little video clips from Aspen from the last night in Vegas floating around somewhere.... Have to go dig them out so you can all see she definately ROCKS!

lmfao! Luc I think we / I made that clear at the golf :lol:
Age is but a number :D
I really think and have done since I saw Aspen that she is very similar to Patti.
She certainly looks similar to Patti, I was shocked at the likeness when I saw her MySpace pics.
And as for the golf I have no idea what you're talking about Deb...!!!!
I personnaly don't think age should come into it, it is an act, actors deal with this sort of thing all them time. People who see it as funny, or perverted, need to get into the real world. On the note of Aspen, she seems like a good replacement, but she does look a bit on the small side though, from what I have seen in pics. Not that this should be any problem, if she has a great voice, just something I noticed. :D
Have you ever noticed how ''tall'' Patti is then ;) :D So it will be no difference there!

What a problem? I think two professionals will work together on stage.

At the end of the day, she's a talented female vocalist replacing another talented female vocalist...
Good luck to her, may she be received by audiences, at Meat's shows, the same way Patti Russo was in 1993...with an open mind.
Maybe that's the whole way to look at all of this, Bat III, the RAH and whatever new line up there may be...all with an open mind.

that was a great final sentence to the whole thing :up:
Aspen Miller from We Will Rock You fame. I wasn't going to post anything but she made the post public in her blog this afternoon. Kasim announced last night at his solo show they only literally just found her that afternoon and she was the 15th girl they auditioned. They really have been trying hard to find the right girl and I do think Aspen will do a great job. Everyone should give her a chance.
I'm not sure if the blog is public to all but here's the link if its allowed:

Great news, having been on WWRY i'm sure she has the theatrical talent that Meat is looking for! She may not sound anything like Patti but maybe that's the whole point!
