I have an idea the half-hearted remark may have been in a review posted on the OIFC board .. but I wouldn't swear to it. But you don't have to stray from here to find criticisms about the same playlists I fear. Meat makes a fair point though .. if anyone doesn't like his performance, or the fact that like most people on tour he has a set list which doesn't change every night, why do they go if they are just going to complain? Leave the tickets for fans who know what to expect and are more than happy with that.
And like Sin, I don't tire of hearing the same list of songs on a CD. I appreciate there are songs which people will expect, and if I go to several concerts I will hear them again. Luckily I love Meat's performance, so I'm happy whatever he sings, and am perfectly content that I will hear pretty much the same songs at different shows in the tour. Each show will have something different, each will be the best Meat can be, and each will be a wonderful experience.
I go to spend an evening with Meat Loaf. How he chooses to delight me is up to him .. and he never fails :) If he suddenly said "Hell .. I'm puffed. I'm just going to chat to you all for a bit and read you some extracts from Wind in the Willows" I'd be happy. I can go home and listen to all the songs .. but to hear him talk and joke is a magic which is not repeated .. and I know he'd bring Mole and Ratty to life on the stage
