View Full Version : Rock and Roll Dreams do come through
Everyone of us has a dream, and sometimes it takes almost a lifetime to fulfil.
Mine was to be serenaded by Meat Loaf up close and personal. My dream came true with an invitation to appear on the Graham Norton show with guest star Meat Loaf on Monday 12th May 2003 for recording to be shown on Friday 16th May on Channel 4.
Roy - hubby, Ellis - son, and myself were to be the subject of an hilarious set up concerning the conception of Ellis to 2 out of 3 ain't bad.
After a week of subterfuge and secret telephone calls the stage was set, at 4.00pm Monday aftenoon, Roy and I were taken to the London Studios in a silver mercedes, in which we watched Passenger 57 through the screens set into the headrests in front of us. 8) We were met by Emma at the front of the studios and taken to our suite whereby we were offered food, drinks, in fact anything we required. Darren joined us later for a quick chat and then we knew the stage was well and truly set for the most
momentous time of our lives.
Sometime later we were taken to the dressing room, to change into our pyjam's, we both felt very relaxed all through this - No 1st Night Nerves for us :lol:
We were then taken backstage to watch the monitor where we could see Meat Loaf and Graham Norton involved in hilarious banter with Meat Loaf stealing the show as usual.
After a while we were led to our bed, this was to be our piece de resistance, describing the bed (well Del Boy springs to mind), Leopard Skin headboard and Blood Red Silk Sheets :!: - Luverly Jubberly :lol: Roy and I were slipping all over the bed with these sheets, it was hilarious - I think we just hoped and prayed that we wouldn't actually slip off the bed at the wrong time :wink:
We took our positions on the bed and listened intently to the shennigans Meat Loaf and Graham Norton were creating on the other side of the curtains, with our son Ellis and his mates. (Once I have seen the video I will be able to be more comprehensive with the following )as we were still behind the curtains.
But from what we could hear it went something like this:-
Graham Norton to Ellis "I believe you shag to 2 out of 3 ain't bad Ellis".
Ellis replies"No, that's my parents as it happens, I was conceived to it"
Graham Norton looked shocked "Oh really"
Graham Norton "I think we should telephone your parents Ellis, and see what they have to say for themselves"
Ellis dials home phone no. - phone rings twice then a click - my signal to pick up the phone from the bed. Graham asks me some questions and then finally says "Are you lying down Dot?"
I replied as sexily as only a 53 year old woman can "Not yet, but I will soon be", the audience erupted into laughter then as the curtains were pulled back to expose Roy and myself snogging and caressing each other.
Ellis was absolutely mortified, he turned away for a few seconds, he couldn't believe it was us (as parents of a certain age don't do that, or so he thinks :lol: )Let alone in front of a studio audience and potentially a largeraudience in the outside world.
After the laughter had died down from the audience, Meat Loaf walked over to our bed and laid down beside me, held my hand and sang 2 out of 3 ain't bad, up close and personal, at that moment time stood still and the situation became surreal. I knew then that life would never be the same again :D
Then unexpectedly Meat Loaf screamed at Roy "Get out of the bed", I think judging by the expression on Roys face, he was petrified of Meat.
Roy replied "But I haven't got any strides on, but I've still got my socks on"(you know what they say about men who keep their socks on in bed):lol:
Once filming had ceased Meat Loaf and Graham Norton both shook our hands and thanked us for taking part and being such good sports.

Shortly after Emma collected us from the stage, and took us back to the suite to dress normally. Suddenly a big flurry Emma grabs us and says quick photo's Meat Loaf. We had a couple taken by Emma who also had managed to get one of us on the bed on stage.
http://pic8.picturetrail.com:80/VOL248/1119057/2109712/25392485.jpg
I chatted to Anne for a short while and looked for The Flying Mouse but couldn't see him anywhere (I think he was hiding from me) :lol:
We left the studios eventually at around 10.15pm and were taken home by people carrier. We laughed like crazy and giggled all the way home. I'm sure the driver thought we had had one too many :!:
By the time you have read this brief account of our magical time, I hope you will be able to feel some of the excitement, fun, and magic, plus embarresement on Ellis behalf that he felt that night.
Once I have the video to study for Ellis part and to see his face in all its :oops: I will be able to put down a more comprehensive review which will hopefully appear in the next issue of Rear View Mirror with photographs - which two of these will be posted on here very shortly.
"The beat is yours forever
The beat is always true
And when you really needed it the most
That's when Rock and Roll Dreams come Through"

I LOVED every word of it! I just wish I could see it on Friday with everyone else!!!
Tim! Now stop teasing about the length of her post. :wink: THIS is one story which HAD to be told slowly. It had to unfold, to take us along with her.
I have to tell you Dottie, I felt my cheeks turning hot as I read it and toward the end, felt the tears welling in my eyes! But mostly, as I continued to read what happened to you, I got the BIGGEST smile on my face that just won't go away!!!! I think I'm going to have it now every time I think of you!!! :lol:
Thank you SO much for sharing it with all of us! Tell your son not to be too upset. I know it's hard at that age.
But it's a sad reality that, in this world, dreams and wishes don't come true often enough. How incredible to hear of one time when they really did!!!!
Thanks, Dottie!!

Evening one and all.
I am Dot's son, Ellis.....the MUG. :lol:
hehe....well what CAN I say?
I feel kinda disturbed watching me 'rents get jiggy with it on national TV, but, damn it was a good laugh!
Hope you all enjoyed the show as much as we all did! It was a freakin good laugh. The whole thing was a blast though and I wanna say props to the editors of the show! hehehe. There was hella load of stuff that happened, that was not shown. Like when Graham first came up to me, Meatloaf actually followed him up and he sat next to me, but for some reason that cut that, it was dead funny as well :( Still! heheh.
I'm going to try and get the whole thing uploaded to the web - being the part where it all happened, not the whole show!!! Would prolly be too big a download! :roll:
hehe anyways peeps. I'll be here for autographs all week....*cough*....... So yeahhhhh....
Speak to you all soon!!!!
Oh yeah, if Emma ever does by chance read this, I wanna thank her for making the night such a wicked experience!!! Thanks!!!!
And thanks to me parents for being nutbars!
And major thanks to Anne for making this happen!!!

ooohhhhh Dottie, I have tears streaming down my face!
You are one lucky lady and still the second half to go...........
Wasn't it the best ever set up you've ever seen in your life - we're just rewinding and playing over and over again - even had a call from my sister in Oz she'd heard about the show but alas she lives in Merriwa - sheep shearing country :lol: and they don't receive Graham Norton - but I have promised her a copy as soon as I can get everything organised.
What an absolutely wonderful night - can't wait to get it up on the web - :oops: shouldn't have said that hopefully we won't have to wait much longer than a week or so .
Love to all you lovely people

Hi Ellis,
You are the best! :bunny: My son would have 'killed me' probebly. But he's only 12 years old, so maybe if I give it time..
I haven't seen the show (live in Holland) but from what you wrote here, I must say you ARE a great son. Yes, Dottie, I know, he is related to you!!!
Hope I'll be able to see this soon!! Been thinking about you guys all day.
Love,
Mariella

Bren - Meat was gargantuan wasn't he - life without him would be a sadder place - Ellis's reaction was incredible I just keep playing that part over and over again. I am so proud of Ellis, he is a lovely lad and did his parents proud on the night :lmao: Maybe he'll knock next time he wants to come into our bedroom :lol:

Chris this old lady is absolutely gob smacked, life will never be the same.
Went to my local corner shop and everyone recognised me, couldn't stop smiling, then went onto the hairdressers they were all falling about as well.
Its a wonderful feeling, please don't let it ever leave me :D

It wont Dottie, it wont. When something beautiful happens, like this, you should remember the words of the poet John Keats:
A thing of beauty is a joy forever:
its loveliness increases; it will never
pass into nothingness...
OMG Dottie, this sounds so great, I wish I could have seen it 'Live' on TV
Plz have you're son upload it ASAP.....
Darn, but I'm happy for you

Me thinks one of my posts disappeared into a black hole or into that bed.
Yesterday at the B/B/Q somebody thought they'd put the video on 3/4 etc times - everyone just fell about - they couldn't believe what we'd done - had them queing for autographs in the end :lol: Lots and lots of questions - main one how did it come about - so I told them that I belonged to the Meat Loaf Forum/Fan Club and that they were more than welcome to pay us a visit - I hope they do :!:

I'm glad he got to sing CHSIB at the end although I couldn't take my eyes off the size of that rock on Patti's wedding finger! Wish I had one like that :roll:

Still awaiting news - will let u all know as soon as I can promise, probably won't be able to post on net as it will infringe copyright so I've been told but hopefully will have some more photo's I hope soon
It might be worth sending them an e-mail, explaining the situation, and they probably wouldn't mind if it was a reasonably short clip.
Technically a photo is just as much a copyright infringment as a video clip, as far as I know.
If you explain it is not being sold etc I am sure they wouldn't mind. Maybe emailing the lady that posted on the forum originally?

Dottie,
Everytime you have a new post here I get all excited thinking that it is the video of "The Event". :lol: Alas, no luck. However, I did notice that the Republic of Loafdom site has an inactive link up for a clip from the show- I wonder if your encounter will be in the link they add?

It's still a "dead link", so there is no video yet to watch. There is lots of other great stuff there though, including the Dutch Lottery Show. The link is:
http://republic-of-loafdom.com/Media/Couldn't%20Have%20Said%20It%20Better/VideoInterviews.htm
You'll probably have to paste the URL because the link doesn't seem to go.

If you have missing links on ROL could you please pm oe email CarylB and let her know.......it may be due to a recent change of server 8O
but i'm sure she's like to know
Re the links on ROL:
The "dead links" which Sherrie mentions are just that .. Vicki has set up a page and posted some video clips, but has yet to get the others ready for posting .. so if you like it's an indication that they're coming :)
If there are any broken links .. ie when you try to get to a page you get "Page not found" or some such message, please let us know. As Sin said we recently moved servers and we THINK we've caught all the ones that fell over in the journey :) .. but we may have missed some .. You can email us, pm us or report any like this by hitting the little figure of Meat saying Problems? which is on the main Route. We're busy on a special new project tonight connected with Meat's next release .. more news on that soon :)) .. and then Vicki will be back on the video case :)
Thx, CarylB, for the update..
If I have any other encounter with pages that cannot be found I WILL let you know.

Hi Sherrie !!
Sorry about that .. I was in the middle of adding the clips and got sidetracked :D I just double checked the clips of him singing to the Video page, and will be adding the clips to the Interview page as soon as I get a chance. I'm not going to spoil the surprise though ...... :))

I had the same problem with the videos on that page, thanks to help from the kind folks at ROL I was able to fix it. To run them I had to:
update my version of Windows Media Player and
save to my desktop and run the videos rather than running them directly from the page
It took a while to figure that out, but it was well worth it. Now I'm on my way to ROL to check out Dottie in bed with ML! Woooo!

Dottie,
I've just finished watching the GN clips on ROL, and I have to say my face actually hurts from grinning like a fool during your bit. You seemed so calm and well spoken! I would have been stuttering and gibbering like a fool, between the twin anxieties of appearing (in PJs!) on TV and knowing that ML was near by. Was the bit where Meat told your husband to get out of the bed during the commercial, or did they cut it from the show? (Or perhaps it wasn't included on the ROL clip?) I was looking forward to seeing that part. Was Meat actually singing to you, or was that a tape that we could hear?
Oh, please tell Ellis that this 34 year old American Mom thinks he's quite the hunk! I love the part where Graham says "we'd like to see that" and he furiously shakes his head no. What a good sport!
I know that your GN rendevouz with Meat will be something that you will remember forever!

Hi Sherrie !
Only Dottie knows for sure :) I guess they must have cut it from the show ...... it wasn't on the tape of the show that I got from Caryl. It's a shame (I would have loved to have seen it too ) but the rest of the show was fantastic !! Meat really put on two performances that night, eh? :lol:
Vicki
I loved it, was laughing so hard my boyfriend actually came to see what was going on!
Ellis really was very good, that look on his face when graham goes, just look down there, I think he went trough the ground ROFLMAO...
And the bull penis' golf club, OMG, did you see meat's face......
He's going:" Ow I know what THAT is!" I almost rolled of of my chair.
I'm going to watch it again in a few sec.

the URL is in Vickip's or CarylB's profile, you can find it when you go to the members pages, top right. (can I post the URL here, not sure???)
All I can say is go check out this site because it's really great, it has tons of stuff on meat..

Yes, I agree, but it should be a VERY long version then, like 10 minutes or so....then he'd probably have to stop the show for another 10 minutes, for people to pick themselves of the floor......after wich nobody can stand up straight becasue everybody will have stomach cramps from laughing...
Yes, would be very, very good idea...

Thank you so much, Dottie. I will be VERY happy with that.
I found out I have 2 mediaplayers on this computer and 'they don't get along'. No-one has been able 'to fix' this. So, I look forward to the 22nd!
Love,
Mariella
Whats happened to the photo's- cann't bring them up - hope this doesn't happen with the new lot - 22nd July onwards and counting!
Hi everyone, Well over the past 8 weeks Ellis and I have toiled without a break to try to capture some more photographs for this topic from the cdmpeg, and for the Rear View Mirror, thought I had struck gold when the Media Dept. where I work at school said they had the high end equipment to enable them to carry the work out. After a period of three weeks the work still hadn't been started so I have retained the cdmpeg back to my possession. The original company in Soho whom I bought the cdmpeg from have agreed to do the work for me, but at a vast cost to myself, eventually I will have the money if I keep saving, but I don't want to wait another couple of months if I can help it.
Now I am looking for someone (I will pay them their going rate)to do this work for me if possible. Is there anyone on the forum who has the knowledge, expertise and equipment available to do this for me?
Ellis and I know it is possible to save pictures to the desktop - using premier software - we managed to do this once, but when I went to print them, the 1sec clips moved, so making it impossible to print out.
The computer then crashed anyway and we lost all of the work that had been carried out previously.
If there is someone out there who has the knowledge please, please pm or e mail me - Thanks
dottie

Hi, Dottie!
DONE!! I have captured over 300 photos for you. Not all are perfect, as they are coming from video. But you should be able to pick and choose the ones you want to use. :bunny:
I'll send you a PM on how to download them to your computer.
Hope this helps! I know how hard and long you've been working, and waiting to share this with everyone! :?
I'm getting ready to leave for the concerts in a couple days, so I'll PM you right away. If you have any problems with them, let me know--but before Thursday, when we're leaving for the first show.
I'm SO excited I can't stand it. Six Meat Loaf concerts in the next 2 1/2 weeks!!! Talk about HEAVEN!!!!!!! :p
Hope to be in touch with everyone in between them, but I'm not sure I'll be able to.
Sending my love to you all,
MB

ps. Dottie--that Ellis of yours is certainly a cutie!!! :P

Six concerts? Fantastic !!!!!
Now that's what I call a Rock N' Roll Dream Coming True :))
Have a great time .. we'll expect full reports as soon as you can :)
Vicki
Wow MB, how very cool!
6 in 2 & 1/2 weeks? You will never be the same. We just saw 2 concerts, 7/11 & 7/19. I'm still not right (yeah, I know, I never was, LOL). You are in for a multitude of treats!
Have a great time. Drop us a line when you have time.
Regards,
T

Dear MB,
Had 'a feeling' you would do this for Dottie/all of us. Simply because you are who you are, a most loving person. Looking forward to those pictures!
Asha and boyfriend, thank you too, ofcourse!
Have a safe trip to 'Heaven and back'! I'll be thinking of you. Again, have fun/enjoy is an understatement for these concerts!
So, like in that Barbara Streisand song: if you ever leave me, will you take me with you!
Love,
Mariella
Rock and Roll dreams DO come true! :wink:
MBrevard and Asha, thank you so much for all your help. You really are my angels in disguise :wink:
I feel blessed in having forum friends who would move heaven and hell to help me and I certainly feel like I've been to Hell these past weeks.
Thank you once again :D
Well folks at last I have the photos - hoping that Ellis will have the time later to post just a couple for the time being - thanks for waiting all you lovely people :D
Enjoy these for a while will change them over eventually ok. :D
