Answering that truthfully on the forum would probably envoke the wrath of the Meat Police and probably a banning.

I'm sure you'd look good in handcuffs Pud

The easiest thing to suggest would be that Patti is long overdue a solo career and that after 13 years or so it was time for a change.

Bands change their lineups all the time and especially with as big a backing band as Meat Loaf has it only makes sense that it will change.

The other thing to take note of is that a show can go stale with the same performers doing the same songs in the same way and in fairness how much more of a surprise can you get from Meat singing 'I would do anything for love but i won't do that' to Patti?

Aspen seems good enough and her style is not that much different from Ms Russo although i think Patti has a better voice and a more rock orientated style.

As far as I can say Patti did not have solo plans.

I was unsure of Aspen in the beginning but now she has made the position her own, adding her own little bits to songs. In all honesty, I genuinely believe Aspen is far better in Anything For Love than Patti. I absolutely adore that song now. She has voice of an angel.

it's a little unfair comparing them after half a tour. We'd have to see how she'd do after 14 years, but I'm afraid he wont tour for that long anymore, lol.

Then perhaps they should have changed Meat Loaf and kept Patti

You took the words right out of my mouth.
Aspen is not only looking better than Patti, she sends the songs to another level. Paradise & Anything with Patti were so boring in the end, now it's a lot better!

Paradise definitely had a new lease of life with it in May but then I don't know whether that was down to Aspen or the fact that it was a new story and therefore would have been good to watch regardless of the singer...

Either way though I'd seen enough of it by the end of tour, and I'm disappointed it's no longer at the beginning of the setlist where it's done and out of the way to enjoy the rest of the show

I lost interest in Paradise many moons ago, it bores the crap out of me now along with Lemon and especially since it was performed at nearly every Bat3 promotional show

As for Aspen, she's nice enough but from what I've heard (which isn't much granted) she sounds a bit like a falsetto chipmunk. Why CC wasn't put into the frontline for the duet is a bit of a mystery. Perhaps they were looking for a mini-Patti.

Although I think Aspen has a good voice, for me she doesn't yet have the stage presence of Patti or the rapport with Meat that Patti had. This of course may come in time.

Has Patti left for good or does she just have other work committments?

Love
Angel xxxx

Patti has officially left, reasons we still do not know and mabe never will unless Meat or Patti want to share that information. Patti has recently made her own as a solo artist recently at Italy's Umbria and Portteria festivals, by the clips and pics she looked in her element and seems to be at home on the stage so I think we will hear and see alot more of her in the future but in the mean time check out her myspace.
As for Aspen Miller I think she has a great stage presence but it's a different kind, I think she is very dominant and mabe more so than Patti was but it's good, I would hate Aspen to mimick Patti to the last detail, Aspen has taken the songs and made them her own and for me that makes it.
But again this is my opinion too.

Porretta not Portteria

We may not know why, but by reading Patti's blog i'd say she's very unhappy about it all Maybe one day she will set the record straight, then all the debating can stop

It would be nice to have the facts out there.......it would perhaps allow the speculation and confusion to finally end and the healing process for all involved to begin. Ironic that it was exactly one year ago Patti announced her departure from the band. Of course we're still waiting for the official word from the ML camp on that subject

The debating will never stop, because if the facts came out (whatever they may be) some people would struggle to logically rationalise them and the truth would become unacceptable.

Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction.
