I was about to write a long reply to Kathy's post, but Mr. Happy has already said most of the things I was going to say.
I have just one thing to add regarding her "just for the music is not good enough" statement: To which extent someone gets interested in Meat Loaf and/or his work is up to them - not to you (Kathy), Meat Loaf or anybody else. This is a fan club - not a sect or a dictatorship. Following an artist is a personal issue and no one has the right to interfere with other people's lives that way. This is a fan site, it is not Meat Loaf's site. He is a (voluntary) member here like everyone else - except that that he gets away with breaking forum rules again and again.
Kathy, if you want to unconditionally support Meat Loaf, that's fine. Do as you please, enjoy his concerts. I hope that you'll also understand the point of view of those who have an issue with the way he treats the members of this forum. It's not that this was just a single outburst, it was one in a row of many. This is a place for people to discuss topics that are related to Meat Loaf, not a place for someone to take out their frustration on its members in the way Meat Loaf does.
