Meat loaf, the singer, not the meal, is a rocker who puts on a hell of a show and you get your money's worth unlike a lot of musicians, especially those in Las Vegas, who go through the motions.
Yesterday, he collapsed on stage and was down for about 10 minutes and then continued the show. From the Daily Mail: It seemed heavyweight rocker Meat Loaf would definitely be gone, gone, gone after he fainted on stage last night.
Thousands of terrified fans saw the 63-year-old Bat Out of Hell singer collapse in the middle of his no 1 hit I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That), with many at the fearing he had suffered a heart attack.
But the veteran singer clearly believed Heaven Can Wait, as he dusted himself off and finished the show despite lying unconscious on the floor for ten minutes surrounded by aides.

I have read stories that Meat Loaf puts everything into his show and would collapse after many shows because he was so exhausted.
Here is the video of the incident, followed by an old favorite.

Wow, that's an ugly freeze-frame of Karla DeVito! Love that video. They used to play it before Rocky Horror every weekend. Did you know the actual woman singing the recording wasn't the girl in the video (DeVito)? She was Ellen Foley, who played the blonde DA, Billie, on "Night Court" before Markie Post got the job. Just a little useless trivia.
ReplyDeleteNow that you mention it, I remember Night Court an Billie, who I didn't like and Markie Post, who I liked.
