lopez gave him a pretty good plug for the tour, but yeah, "los angeloser" is feeling old and worn out already....
I thought it was very good :-) Once Meat got going, he seemed more relaxed and comfortable with
it then he did on both QVC and Huckabee. The audience was getting into it too.

It's not feeling old and worn out to me :wink:
And it was still great seeing him on tv, getting publicity for the tour and the CD !
IMO: 3 times Los Angeloser has been televised and each time it is getting more dynamic. I noticed stronger music presence than QVC and Huckabee....in fact there were bongo type drums, some cow bell type thing being struck, and of course the NLE. Meat's vocals got stronger as the sound seemed to fill my living room. And I note the spoken part had much more patience/timeliness probably due to several live performances to hone in on his delivery of it. CC gave him the thumbs up at the end of the song. Lopez was able to give Meat some talk time. There was a little dance going on at the end of the show. Personally, I haven't grown tired of Los Angeloser. I liked this performance very much!

The quality of the video is too bad to judge the performance, yet it appears as if it was better than on QVC and Huckabee. Don't understand whey they didn't take the chance to pick another song this time though. Los Angeloser does not represent the album very well, in my opinion.

Well , I really liked it thought it rocked , we changed the feel and it's the only song we had we could make a 3min 15 sec . version and make sense. I have gone flat on the word valley the other times we have done , it was right on tonite. we all like it. If you didn't, don't watch it again. "Doctor it hurts everytime I do this" doctor says "well stop doing that".

Man I dunno why you say the fat lady will sing after this year's 33 shows. Because since you've been doing live shows, your voice sounds hotter than I've heard it in 33 years :D I think more talk shows is a must, this show was the best HCTB plug yet i think. It just worked really well and I love what you said about the band. Of the youtubes i've seen so far, this is the best live show you've done in a long time. It stands out. 99% of people say your show was the best they've seen. Why not continue the tour at your own pace, without burning out, and give people the chance to see it and feel good that your putting on a show that everyone thinks is exhilarating to watch?

The video is better now, obviously it was much rockier and more relaxed this time. :up: Unfortunately the audio of the clip is still not very good, you can't hear some of the instruments and Meat's vocals properly. Will wait for the official video on the Lopez website.

Hey Meat, i've heard a lot of the youtube clips. Just heard this one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-reHC14UaSY
Your voice is much better than any 05, 06, 07, or 08 show that I heard. It sounds like its in better shape than its been since 2003-2004 but it doesn't break as much. And you seem much more in control of each song. How did you manage that :P its amazing even from a 22 year olds perspective. ;)

I agree again, but then when I get sick and I cancel. I get, we spent all this money to get there and he didn't play. When I do go on sick(like amsterdam in on 07, with 4, count them 4 doctors in the dressing room telling me 15 mins before the show that I am in no condition to go on stage but I do so as to not to let the people down. Then the show is just awful and the people say oh it's over for him I can't believe I spent money on that. Meat loaf sucks. Then I went back and got sick the morning of the show and another bad show. Now I can't go play in holland because the promoters won't bring me in to play. With my weakness being my chest and lungs. I can't take giving so much grief to so many people. Much less myself. Yes, the 13 shows we have done this summer have been the best we have done since early 1993. The show and band are perfect. I am much better as well. At some point I have to weigh plus and the minus , to me the minus out weighs the positive. The fans are the most important and I wear my heart on my sleeve , just in case you haven't noticed :-)

When people see you at your best, the minus is forgotten instantly. You set the bar so high that it's perhaps impossible to reach 100% of the time but that's also a credit to how great you can be.

I thought it rocked too :-) It needed the full band, and it reminded me of hearng it live in the show, which was great. The sound quality of the clip isn't good (although thanks for putting it up Warrio as I coudn't watch it live), but as so many people state so clearly that they can ignore that, what the hell ;) .. and I love Los Angeloser.
Wasn't flat :roll: .. and you're lookng good!
If you didn't, don't watch it again. "Doctor it hurts everytime I do this" doctor says "well stop doing that".
Ain't that the truth! :lol: Bring it on Meat .. you're back, you're sounding great, you rock!

The show I've seen this tour was indeed perfect. I understand you don't need grief and hassle, nor do you deserve it. Still think you bring so much to so many at so many concerts it's worth it, because you're on such incredible form, but that's just me being selfish .. I've never left a show feeling let down in any way, have always been able to ride the odd cancelled show because of the sheer joy of so many wonderful nights watching and hearing you in your unique style which after you will be gone forever .. As Andrew said, you set the bar so high .. it won't be matched!
The fans are the most important and I wear my heart on my sleeve , just in case you haven't noticed
Have to be blind or totally up your own ass to miss it! It's a warm and generous heart and as big as your beautiful rock'n'roll soul.

I think that's more than enough Meat, that's wonderful of you to do that. That seems to be the main problem Meat, you're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't. You get sick, and still go on and do your best, and people complain the show was no good and you shouldn't have gone on, or that you're past it and should give it up, but if you cancel they winge then too. But it's great that you are recovered now and putting on amazing shows once again. I'm really looking forward to the shows in Texas and Florida.

I think 2 for 1, and breaking even is definitely enough. Its very generous and im sure it will make them feel much better about the concert.
Well im not gonna say much, i have no idea of the specifics. I may be 22, but every day I watch live recorded DVD's and very recent youtubed shows of Springsteen, Ronnie Dio, Neil Young, the Stones, David Gilmour, Paul Mcartney, Willie Nelson, Leonard Cohen....All folks who are (or in ronnie's case were) between age 60-80.
I've watched those men go through rough patches where, honest to god for whatever reason, they sounded worse than usual and probably felt like age was wrecking their ability to put on a decent tour. But as a fan of 60's and 70's artists, Im happy to say that they have ALL worked through their problems, changed their shows and song arrangements to work with their current age and vocals, and they still put on a show worth paying money to see and hear, and that sell out!
Your in great shape physically and you can sing like f*cking crazy, better than most artists who are my age. Spacing the shows out this summer worked really well for you. Spacing them out even more by one day would probably help even more.
Now that your shows are back to a level of quality that all of your fans say each show is amazing, You will have a huge number of people wanting to see your shows while you are able to perform at this level. I say take advantage of that, continue to plug HCTB. I believe in you :D

HCTB on storytellers would be a dream come true.
By the way Meat, I played my 15 year old brother california isn't big enough in the car and he thinks its hilarous. He stared at me like 'whoa' when he heard your super high vocals on it. Now he's addicted to HCTB
He updated his facebook status saying how "Meat Loaf might be old but man he can still sing!" heheh....now he's had it on repeat for a few days and even likes did you ever love somebody.
This proves to me that HCTB would work for a younger generation. My girlfriend is 23 and she loves Madness and she likes the rest of the album too. I wish your record co had plugged HCTB to a younger generation. I can honestly say I never thought Mike would ever get addicted to HCTB. But He likes how funny and chill the music is :)
just do whats best for you Meat? you have given us 30+ years of joy and entertainment:D,, look forward to seeing this great new show!!! ps. - if you do call it a day on the live shows after this? but another studio album would be nice;)

Guess it means setting the alarm so I'm up at 3am which will be fun - not only that but my mom's PC is so ancient and slow that tickets will probably be gone (or seats way in the back will only be left) by the time I can login! Nothing like a challenge. :D

As i am from that neck of the woods, ( Newcastle ) and i was at the show where you got real sick and had to go off stage. I can say YES IMO it is enough ! I am so thrilled that you will be coming to Geordie Land ! I know that my nephews and my dad will be well pleased !
I haven't forgotten how much money you gave to the charities, as well as the very generous fans who gave money !
Not every performer would have took the time, to try and give something back !
Thank you for that !

I'm not a fan of the song anyway, there's better songs that can promote HCTB in my opinion. Prize Fight Lover with Bongo's and Banjo's ;)

Hopefully that will ever be played live and I'll get to hear it - with or without bongos and banjos.
I agree again, but then when I get sick and I cancel. I get, we spent all this money to get there and he didn't play. When I do go on sick(like amsterdam in on 07, with 4, count them 4 doctors in the dressing room telling me 15 mins before the show that I am in no condition to go on stage but I do so as to not to let the people down. Then the show is just awful and the people say oh it's over for him I can't believe I spent money on that. Meat loaf sucks. Then I went back and got sick the morning of the show and another bad show. Now I can't go play in holland because the promoters won't bring me in to play. With my weakness being my chest and lungs. I can't take giving so much grief to so many people. Much less myself. M
Meat - we know you give your all - I'm sorry for those who travelled to see you and couldn't, but you know Shit happens - its not your fault. My mother died last year and I was distraught - but was that her fault??? No - it just happens and we all gotta learn to live with it. I just wish you wouldn't beat yourself up over it - you give soo much happiness to so many who enjoy your shows, I'm sure no-one wants you to stop until your ready to.
Newcastle: To try and make it up , we are selling tickets 2 for 1 .. I am playing to just cover expenses. Do you think that is enough?
M
You know - that is great - so many artists in your position wouldn't care but we can see you do. I just hope your promoters manage to get the message through to the TV and radio stations about what you're doing so the general public can see that you care.
I was there in Newcastle that night and we were gutted - but we were gutted at the thought that you might never perform again - we were gutted for you!
It will be fantastic to have you back in Newcastle.
Any chance of the return of the Bat Cave?????

Meat has announced that the end is nigh numerous times. I still forsee some kind of Greatest Hits tour after the Hang Cool tour has finished. From what I've heard of Justin's piano playing so far it would be a shame if he didn't get a chance to bash out some of Meat's back catalogue. :twisted:
[QUOTE=Fire Ball;512351] With my weakness being my chest and lungs. I can't take giving so much grief to so many people. Much less myself.
Is there a reason why the shows have to be every other night? Why can't they be 2 days a week, this way your lungs would get enough rest in between shows. I don't know anything about scheduling shows, just asking. The tour would be long, but it might benefit your health which is more important. I don't believe anyone on here would object to 2 days a week instead of every other night.
I really tried to stay awake for Lopez but just couldn't do it. Thank you for posting the clip. I just love Los Angeloser. Missed the HOT RED jacket thou.

The cost at a rough guess. Meat would still have to pay for the band and crew whether they are working or not, plus all the hotel expenses.

This newest arrangement is superb. Love the extra percussion!
Thought the TV coverage was very poor though, the camera seemed to spend more time panning across the back of the audiences' heads rather than showing what was happening on stage. That's not how I like to watch my Meat on TV!

I know this would be more expensive (as Evil already pointed out), but I still think it's a great idea. Maybe just a few shows in select areas, filmed for a DVD, or perhaps shorter segments (8-10 shows) with longer breaks (2-4 weeks) in between them :??:

Man I dunno why you say the fat lady will sing after this year's 33 shows. Because since you've been doing live shows, your voice sounds hotter than I've heard it in 33 years :D I think more talk shows is a must, this show was the best HCTB plug yet i think. It just worked really well and I love what you said about the band. Of the youtubes i've seen so far, this is the best live show you've done in a long time. It stands out. 99% of people say your show was the best they've seen. Why not continue the tour at your own pace, without burning out, and give people the chance to see it and feel good that your putting on a show that everyone thinks is exhilarating to watch?
That along with no shows near me (yet again) is why I have high hopes for a dvd from this tour. Much better than the MSO and 3 Bats sound although they were good shows, this stuff rocks more and Meat's voice free of the cysts is in the best form in quite some time.

Don't get me wrong, I love Meat and his music, but I really thought that was the poorest I've heard him... shall we say in a very long time. Just wondered what your thoughts were?
Try the thread Lopez Tonight in Loaf, Camera Action. Clips and discussion.
Me? I agree with Meat .. he rocked!! And sounded great .. there's a poor quality clip and a good one (the second in the thread) The second one gives a better quality sound, and with the full band backing this version edited for the studio was close to the fntastic performance Meat and the NLE do of this song in the live shows. He's singing as good as he was in the early nineties .. amazing!

Why did he do Los Angeloser when it's the second worst song on the album?:roll: He should have done Song Of Madness or Peace On Earth would have made more sense.
Why did he do Los Angeloser when it's the second worst song on the album?:roll:
Second worst song? I'd rather put that label on "Lesbian" Love. :devil: I'm not very fond of Los Angeloser as a live song, too, but I don't think it's bad. It's a nice little song but unfortunately not the kind of music that knocks your socks off or gives you an impression of what gems are hidden on the album.
He should have done Song Of Madness or Peace On Earth would have made more sense.
Maybe this answers your question:
it's the only song we had we could make a 3min 15 sec . version and make sense.
That makes me wish that we had real music shows on TV again, like in the 1970s when you could play songs that exceeded three minutes.
Why did he do Los Angeloser
In one of Meat's post on this thread he said that LA fit the 3:15 time they had. Reread the thread for his post, I just paraphrased.

I'm probably one of many who when rocking don't really care about the lyrics and if they make sense or not :shrug:
I think Meat has chosen Los Angeloser as the signature song from HCTB, even though it hasn't done really at all well in any charts. You can flog a dead horse so many times but it's still dead.

He mentioned that it was going to be the first single very early, in one of the first videos he posted, if I remember it correctly. So it had obviously been chosen before the album was made and they stuck to that decision. :shrug:
Meat's voice sounds so much better when it's echoing around an arena, the mix is always so flat on these studio shows.
Best TV performance of that song yet though, the energy was great.

I thouht it was great, I think Meat got better and better as the song went on, remember you cant go from 0-1000mph in seconds, you need time to get warmed up.
The spooky thing is, just as I was readign this thread on Los Angelooser, my mobile rang, and I have that as the ringtone, and ti was a unknown number.
Perhaps it was Meat telling me to get off the forum and get a job? lol
Hey Meat. You said 11 shows are planned for Downunder. Are you coming to Perth? I hope so. Hopefully the Fat Lady slims down and looses her voice.:-)
I agree Meat, your 2 Perthies can't wait!! Any idea when we will hear of a date for ticket sales here?
Hopefully the shows will be late Feb, my cricket season runs into early Feb... fingers crossed hey,not to worry, no matter what I will find a way!

I agree with the thought that Meat chose LA to be "the" signature song. I still say it didn't chart well because promo has sucked balls over here (in the US).
End pudding quote response here.
________________________________________________________________
Meat's consistancy to deliver the same song could possibly gain momentum. Why do you think radio stations play one hit of an artist over and over and over again? At the moment HCTB doesn't have radio presence, SO whatever live exposure Meat gets...he's consistantly playing Los Angeloser. Give him props for sticking to his plan, tenacity, and belief in the song (if this line of thinking that is indeed what's going on). I'm game for whatever show Meat can book and I'll watch LA everytime if that's the "chosen one". Like Meat said if you don't like it, don't watch.

Don't forget that it's not only die-hard fans who watch those TV appearances. The casual listener needs that "wow, what a song, that Meat Loaf guy is f*cking cool" experience to get really interested in him and his album. Otherwise you watch it, maybe you even think "not bad" but you'll forget about it very soon. That performance of Los Angeloser was much better than previous ones, yet I doubt that it will attract that many non-fans. But I'm willing to reconsider my opinion in case album sales will increase significantly because of the Lopez show. ;)

There are people here who aren't keen on having LA the featured song on TV. It's been said on the QVC thread and the Huckabee thread that he should do a different song. If he had read these comments, and still chooses LA, then the opinions regarding a song change on this forum doesn't matter. The LA song may still be played no matter how people groan about it here. So if anyone is groaning about seeing LA, then my recent paraphrase is applicable.
It's not going to hurt Meat any if any of us here don't watch the show. We've all got the album anyway or in some cases gave it a chance.

I had only the non-die hard people in mind when I posted my thoughts. IMO: If a crackin' performance of Los Angeloser is done, it has the potential of attracting a new fan. Besides the blessing of being put in front of America on a cable TV channel is huge. Usually the studio audience gets to go home with a copy of the musical guest's new cd anyway....so they will get to have the HCTB experience. If the audience has a great time at the performance, then they will likely check out the CD. The potential is there. If his plan is to do "Los Angeloser" all TV performances then so be it. I think the potential is totally there.

20 Aug 2010, 03:31
I can see this from Suzie's point of view. The plugging the same song thing gets done by most artists like this. Of course for the die hard fans who follow all these performances it's great to hear different stuff but the thought here is that for the casual buyer (and there are more of those) it is indeed probably best to be reminded of a song a couple of times and hopefully then go out buy the CD. If Meat uses the TV opportunities like this it's probably best. LA is fun, short, summery and catchy whether it perhaps divides fans or not. It may not have the impact of a AFL but the repeated performance thing isn't a bad idea considering lack of airplay on radio and music channels I would have thought.
I would love to see a fantastic tv rendition of PFL, but considering it isn't on the album it won't happen.

LA isn't going to get people to want to listen to the whole album if anything it would make them not want to listen.

That is such a stupid move on there part IMO.

Well the album did get to number 4 in the UK, so I would have thought it did have some impact. Meat hasn't performed HCTB on UK TV (yet).
Perhaps he would consider doing "Peace on Earth" if he got a chance (never understood why he hasn't been on Jools Holland ever). I think POE would make for the most interesting song choice as it has some good bits imo.

Many will indeed agree (as do I mostly) but Meat and Cavallo really seemed to have thought LA and Like a Rose were THE singles for this album and they started with those songs. I don't really get it either. I think LA is more of a filler personally. It is indeed fun to see the tv crowds react well to it but it's not a typical bombastic or vocally powerful Meat song. But I think that is exactly what he wanted to do, more bluesy/country/rock-ability, whatever you would call this mix of music. Like the album title he probably thought that would have the most impact "hey guys you haven't seen me do this before".
Why selling rocks when you have diamonds?
I'm a long-time Meat Loaf fan, yet I watched the Wolfmother clip on the Lopez webpage about a dozen times while I clicked Los Angeloser only twice, go figure.

It went to #4 in Germany as well and that had NOTHING to do with Los Angeloser.

Did you happen to watch the chat between Meat and Lopez? Meat did make an adjustment .... did you catch it?
As far as I remember, he talked about the album and its title and it didn't differ much from most he had said about it before. What was the adjustment exactly?

Then so be it. about 15 of the songs we didn't do on this record we are going to record next year. It is real easy for people to write oh he should have done this or that. They are not dealing with the TV shows. We were going to do" living on the outside " The best we could do was a 3 :49 edit the TV show said no. too long. So I do the best I can . I got warmed up to sing and then they made me wait an extra hour and the studio was freezing cold. What does me being 62 have to do with anything . Oh, go act my age !! I did not like that.

Meat - everyone here has their opinion of how your album should be promoted and what songs you should sing on TV, but hey guess what - if we knew what we were talking about we would be working for a Promo company rather than spewing crap on this forum.
Try not to let our ramblings get under your skin - you should be enjoying your tour and rocking the pants of those lucky enough to see your shows.
Can't wait to see you in the UK.:-P
If everyone leaves here because they get pissed off . Then so be it.
Meat, do you really want that?
Hey, we all want to hear praise rather than criticism and I understand that artists are especially sensitive when it comes to their work. Please feel free to disagree with our opinions but please avoid those cuss words.
Why not just say "You're wrong...", "your comment is not fair..." instead of "you [enter any cuss word you like]"?
Elijah'sWay did not say that that she (?) doesn't like you, she just can't stand one particular song while loving others. Maybe the comment regarding age was a bit offensive... She wouldn't be that passionate about it if she didn't like you. The bigger the love, the bigger the disappointment. ;)
Please don't forget we often don't know the background to something, maybe some comments would be different if we did.

So , why the need to comment on things people know nothing about.
I always said you don't like a song fine, I disagree but it's fine . Don't agree with your love line !!

Really....we are all, when it comes down to it, dedicated fans on this board.
But since you chat here Meat, it enables the discussions to be more in depth...more real...And more emotional at times. I dont see the problem with that. I guess there could be slightly less finger pointing and name calling. But Its annoying when half the conversation gets deleted. Keep it real.
We all want the same thing, no matter how much we bicker. Meat Loaf to be successful and do well because we love his art.

Probably cuz half the time...people treat this forum like Meat doesn't check what is read. And we say things without thinking of how it would make Meat feel. He's said repeatedly what he dislikes reading, but people dont seem to care. So I dont mind when he speaks his mind right back at us ?:shrug:
So , why the need to comment on things people know nothing about.
Well, we see something on TV or read something in a magazine and we discuss it. Sometimes we speculate about something or jump conclusions because we don't know why a particular choice or statement was made. You can't avoid that, it happens on any discussion board.
Maybe someone says something stupid sometimes (communication can be difficult at times) but I'm sure we can clarify and settle that in a civilized way instead of adding fuel to the fire.
I sometimes have the feeling that you regard us as foes. :??: We wouldn't bother to register on a Meat Loaf fan forum and exchange our opinions here if we didn't like you and weren't interested in what you do.

At some point I have to weigh plus and the minus , to me the minus out weighs the positive. The fans are the most important
It probably just looks like the negative outweighs the positive because you got sick this summer.
Maybe after this year's shows, it will flip? Everything seems to be in place for that to happen.
Got my fingers crossed for you Meat :) ps Have an awesome time at the Vegas show tomorrow!
All of this most likely wouldn't have happened, if people would actually re-read what they are about to post before clicking the "Submit" button. That particular post was offensive and could have been worded much better.
Enough of this, continue with the Lopez show please.

IMO: 3 times Los Angeloser has been televised and each time it is getting more dynamic. I noticed stronger music presence than QVC and Huckabee....in fact there were bongo type drums, some cow bell type thing being struck, and of course the NLE. Meat's vocals got stronger as the sound seemed to fill my living room. And I note the spoken part had much more patience/timeliness probably due to several live performances to hone in on his delivery of it. CC gave him the thumbs up at the end of the song. Lopez was able to give Meat some talk time. There was a little dance going on at the end of the show. Personally, I haven't grown tired of Los Angeloser. I liked this performance very much!

This thread is more entertaining than George Lopez himself :))
lol as for the Lopez show itself, It was sorta disappointing on how funny it actually was....
But the band is indeed the best since early 1993 as stated earlier in the thread. Just kinda wish we knew what the seventh HCTB album song was that meat and the band has arranged...
We already know Like a Rose and If I Cant Have You are arranged.
And Peace on Earth, outside, Angeloser, and Madness are already in the set mainstay.
What's the seventh HCTB song?

This might seem obvious, but is the Lopez show catered more towards the hispanics, with him being hispanic? Just wondering how well Meat Loaf is appreciated by hispanics, let alone HCTB or Los Angeloser :shrug:

I've listened to the Lopez performance several times now and I think it was f'n awesome. I love the new arrangement of LA - the percussion intro just makes a great song even better.
I loved this version - a considerable improvement on your QVC performance.
My daughter & I cannot wait to see this live when you venture over to the UK
Enough of this, continue with the Lopez show please.
