The other threads you mentioned were started in the NON-Meat Loaf area of this website. Believe it or not, there are a couple of members who like Meat Loaf AND Springsteen. (Shocking!)

I agree that the orginal question was a valid one in the Production thread. Unfortunately it started a debate about who was the better artist. Thus this thread was started.
As far as the info i posted about the threads is concerned, I simply copied and pasted the thread info DIRECTLY from the board. So if the board itself is showing incorrect info, then you can take it up with the mods. I am just going by what was published on the board.
I have also said previously that I am a Springsteen fan myself. I have in fact seen him live twice. So obviously, yes, I do believe that you can like both artists. I have mentioned numerous other artists that I am a fan of at different times on this board. My musical tastes runs from classical music - Bach, Beethoven, Mozart - to heavy metal, encompassing most genres in between. I would hardly call that narrow-minded. I don't have a problem with other artists. And I never said I did, so don't put words in my mouth or twist things that I have posted to suit your point.
I NEVER critized Meat for covering another artist either, Again DO NOT make it seem as if I have said things that I have NEVER said. Again you are attempting to twist things around.
This all started because I made a general comment expressing my feelings that were valid to the whole discussion on this thread. All future posts I made were simply to clarify and further elaborate on my original thoughts and opinions.
