![]() Oh, ok then, you forced me into this... You took the words right out of my mouth. :LOL: Anyhow, sad to hear Kasim is off. All the best Kasim. Would be great if Meat could clear up why he's off. Looking forward to finding out who's replacing him! |

But as regards the musical director position; I think that will be done by Meat Loaf with the NLE contributing of course. Now I know Kasim was credited as the musical director and all, but Meat Loaf did contribute vast amounts to the direction of every show he did, much more than he credits himself for. So I personally don't think the musical director position is anything to be worried about. As regards the sound of the NLE. I can't see it changing in anyway unless Meat wants it to. He could do one thing today and change it completely the next. So expect the unexpected as regards the sound of the NLE goes. |

In Kasim's position, he has been known as the 'Derek Jeter' of the NLE. As Meat and Kasim have worked so closely over the years, Kaz had a handle on Meat's ad libs on stage, when and where to start the band back up based on Meat's cues, Etc. Meat is the primary visionary as to how the scripts roll during the show, but the timing of the band with Meat's vision must be in check and that assist had to go to his short stop, Kasim.
I'm sure the kinks we speak of will be all sorted come tour time. For me it's going to be just another element for me to be excited about...to see what Meat does with his creativity. Suzieq |

He was more than a bass player alright. He could sing, play all guitars, keyboards, a songwriter and director, drummer..what couldn't he do?
But I'm upbeat while everyone else is sad, because I know he'll be back again in the near future. |

I think it's a measure of how closely Meat and his whole band connect with us from the stage, that we hate to see any of them go. And we see them up there, interacting with each other, helping each other, working hard together to give us a good show. I do remember the first time I saw the NLE, the only person I could "see" was Meat. Since then I've expanded my peripheral vision a little
![]() Best wishes, Kasim! Kathy |

This is such sad news, every concert I have been too, Kasim has been there in Orlando he caught my attention because he saw me trying to get one of Meat's guitar picks and failing and he caught my eye and threw me one of his which I still have that was back in 2007, he will be missed and there will no doubt be a void now but I wish him luck in the future and whatever projects he does from now on.
