Be very careful Meat! (re NRL Grand Final)

I have not been at this site for ages and ages and I apologise if an Australian fan has mentioned this before (I didn't find it anywhere but, you know):

Meat Loaf is performing at the NRL (Nat. Rugby League) grand final in two weeks (YEAH!!!!! - unfortunately the bloody Brisbane Broncos managed to lose their last 8 games and are no where to be seen in the semi finals. Bah...).

But the point is this: Last year at the NRL grand final was Billy Idol. He used his own roadie guys instead of the NRL stadium sound guys - and completely stuffed up. None of the mikes worked or something and he came out making his huge entrance on a hover craft... paced backwards and forwards on stage for a bit trying to keep the crowd enthusiastic and then just didn't perform anything at all. The whole Billy Idol crew just stuffed up big time and made both Billy idol and the opening of the grand final look really really stupid.

Be careful Meat!!! I bet the NRL staff this time will be hasitant to let Meat's guys do it... Oh man if I don't get to hear Bat and Couldn't have Said it Better performed before the game I'm gonna be very unhappy! Here's hope it all goes smoothly for both Meat and us thirsty thirsty fans.
