Some more concrete details about the Beacon Theatre 1996 show AT LAST

Ok I was discussing with someone, in a Billy Joel group of all things, the 1996 Meat Loaf Beacon Theatre show.

OK This was the (most likely) setlist:

Where the Rubber
Where the Rubber (retake)
Midnight
Life is a Lemon
Dead Ringer
Took the Words
Revved Up
Id Lie For You
Original Sin (proven through the bonus DVD interview)
Amnesty is Granted
Not A Dry Eye In The House
Left in the Dark (proven through the bonus DVD interview)
What You See Is What You Get
Bat Out Of Hell

Hot Patootie (?)

A few interesting details:

1.He didn't know why they redid the first song, but this is now form a second source and can be confirmed someones head was hit by a jib.
2. The band would play 1-2 songs then there'd be a 20-30 minute break in between
3. The guy says it "was the worst concert he'd ever been to" because of what happened above
4. At the end, and this is actually pretty sad, meat announced he wasn't going to do Paradise and the venue booed and it was a very bitter end to a great vocal show. They did What you see, which is heard on LATW, in its place.
5. They did end with Bat.
6. He couldn't recall if Hot Patootie was played or not, needs verification, but it does sound like Beacon
7. He is "nowhere near certain" on Original Sin or Left in the Dark but the video clips in the interview of the DVD prove it was performed.

Any more info Id love to know. This show has been an enygma for quite some time but its interesting that meat was booed for not doing paradise.
