Shame the musical thread has been headlining MLUKFC in General Messages longer than Braver/anything direct related to Meat Loaf did recently.

"New generation" my ass.
I see the Bat musical just like I see the Abba musical or We will rock you are/were totally different entities than the original (& much better) artists. I'm pretty sure when you talk about Bat out of hell in 10 years people will remember Meat again and not the musical so much. It almost seems to me they want too much success with the musical too fast, rather than let it be a slow burner that can grow into something long lasting.

Also I've never understood the Steinman only fans whining about the recognition so much. I've never seen a song writer who is not the original artist been more well known than Steinman / get as much mentions.
Steinman: 417K Google results
Bill Bottrell: 147K
Rod Temperton: 241K
How many people have heard of Rod Temperton or Bill Bottrell. Will they eventually get recognition too? "Rod Temperton & Bill Bottrell's Michael Jackson musical"?
