Wow is right! :-/ Odd. And I can't quite make up my mind on how I feel about what I read either. Then again it IS almost 3:45 AM so that could be the reason for it. LOL

It's a fairly good review.

The reviewer says that Meat struggles to hit some of the high notes I was just wondering, has he seen the clip of Bat Out Of Hell? You're telling me he didn't hit the high notes at the end?

Well in all fairness he sounds far from perfect in the clips I've heard, including Bat. So I think it's a fair statement for the reviewer to make

Yes ... unfortunately you can't please everybody no matter how hard you try

But I know I'm truly looking forward to it, and thank you for all the hard work and
dedication you've put into it !

Best post in awhile...leave it to Meat Loaf to find the truth in everything.

It is a worldwide DVD release. Good, bad, or indifferent you have to know going into it that people are going to scrutinize it and "put it under a microscope" its just human nature. Some people won't, but detail oriented people like myself are going to notice things like weird echo effects and lighting issues.

Doesn't mean the entire product is bad, will have to wait and see on that, but it is just honest opinions and there isn't anything wrong with that.

Then we'll just have to agree to disagree. I'm not one of those people who feels the need to scrutinize it or
"put it under a microscope" .... I'll simply enjoy the concert as a whole, and only comment on the DVD when
I've seen the final released version.

To be perfectly honest with you, my only wish is that The Giving Tree and Mad Mad World had been included
... hopefully they will both be released on video somewhere down the road because they have both been truly
amazing live on this tour.

Is it? It may be human nature for a minority but the majority of people who'll buy it will like it or dislike it as a whole DVD.

Well in all fairness you cut out half of what I said, but that's neither here nor there.

I will recluse myself from further discussion on the matter for the simple fact that nothing that I have seen so far has made me want to buy the thing, so I simply won't be spending my hard earned money on this.

misterfive · 23 Sep 2012, 06:03

I found the tour to be enjoyable overall but lacks something I can't put my finger on it though.

I agree. The members of this forum don't imo exactly represent Meat's wider fanbase but are a minority in themselves, and even on here many will just buy it, play it and enjoy it as a whole performance without the need to examine every aspect of the production. Meat's point that pinning it on a board and dissecting it down to the bones isn't the best way to enjoying it is well made in my view .. but most people won't do that.

I'm hoping this statement is directed at MarkS and not EVERYONE on here, because the majority of people here have nothing but positive things to say about you and your work?!!!

Meat, from what I've heard on iTunes and on Youtube this DVD is gonna be freakin amazing!!! You sound more than amazing. You look like you had fun and any fan will love it and you, my good sir, should be bloody proud of what you do and what you are about to release as it looks and sounds perfect an anyone who doubts what you do needs their heads checking.

Never, ever, EVER stop rocking, else you'll have me to deal with lol.

Take care Meat!

I could ask you the same thing. Especially in relation to the iTunes material that you mentioned. Take Hot Patootie for instance, it is vocally terrible IMO. There comes a time where you start to notice that difference between screaming and singing

Not to worry, I will be out of your hair by Sept. 2013. It will be like I was never here. Just gone like a puff of smoke.

Well that wasn't something I wanted to read first thing today. I'm hoping that train of thought is just a fleeting thing...
