Well the artist definitely has the final say

Its his business. I honestly hope Meat is not upset at our discussing the subject, for whatever he chooses to do is neither right nor wrong. Its what worked best at the time, given the circumstances

And I am happy with, and support all of those decisions wholeheartedly. What I have, at the same time, is hope and excitement for future...For what's next! One avenue of excitement is what I've mentioned, but If Meat's not down with that, then that is perfectly ok. Bootlegs will likely continue to surface and fans will eat them up, much like you would a new Harry Potter novel if one should surface. So in the end, its all positive vibes

I very much doubt that anyone who spends the time to search the net for the elusive Meat Loaf bootleg will judge it the same way they judge a concert :P 99.9% of those who do find the bootleg are just relieved and thrilled to have found it!! I always take into account the quality of the bootleg, and usually blast it in my sound dampening headphones so I can hear Meat's voice better and have it be more awesome

(at the expense of my ear drums..)
