3 Bats DVD to be aired on radio
 

well, sort of:
German station WDR 2 is broadcasting parts of the London, Ontario show next Sunday 11pm (10pm your time). Occasion is the 30th anniversary of the BOOH release.

Set list as taken from their website:
You took the Words right out of my Mouth
Anything for Love
Rock'n Roll Dreams come true
Blind as a Bat
Bat out of Hell
All coming back to me now

Infos about the show (only German) can be found here and the livestream here. The quality is not the best, if anyone's interested I'll record the show for you in best digital quality. ;)

Oh fantastic, thanks RJ!

So...do we listen or wait to see/hear it all in October...! :p

didnt we have a similar issue last October as well? :sherlock:

I didn't! :p

Would be nice to see/hear any preview in advance of the formal issue. Especially since the full dvd is issued close enough to the 2nd leg to warrant putting the disc away for a few weeks so as not to take away from any of the shows that will be seen in Oct/Nov.

Ohh that's a point...don't want to spoil second leg having seen a recorded show two weeks before...we'll have to listen :p

I'll take it you want me to record it then

Yes please! Nothing wrong with having a little preview beforehand I say :)

yes please record it and maybe someone can upload to the internet or something like that. Would be great to hear how it sounds. If I ai't working, I might try and listen online...

Is it this sunday - 9 Sept or the sunday after ?

I tried to translate this info and this is the best I got:

WDR 2 SOUND FILES CONCERT (SUNDAY, 09.09.07 - STARTING FROM 23.00 O'CLOCK)
"The 30-jährige anniversary of its success album “asked out OF bright” celebrates Meat Loaf in this year with a large world tour. Recently it led it also to Cologne, where WDR 2 presented its concert in the Cologne arena. On this route the singer, who is in certain way more an actor, plays Songs of his success album as well as the later continuations from the years 1993 and 2006. Approximately 10,000 fans visited alone in Cologne the live-performance of these “ask Trilogie”. For it and all those, which could not be thereby, there is an addition on Sunday in the sound files. We play some highlights of the route from a Mitschnitt, to 18. March with a concert in London developed".

it's this sunday, 9th

The text doesnt contain any new info, just mentions the 30th anniversary of BOOH, the two sequels, the big world tour and that he's just been to Cologne, nothing more.

on tonight - does nayone know how long it lasts for?

exactly one hour.

oh great - should be able to listen to it then....:-)
might be able to record it but not sure how the quality will be playing it in MS Media Player

the web stream quality is usually crap, in every case not as good as the normal one.
Dont worry I'll record it directly from radio, should be able to load it up later tonight.

oh great. would the be able to transfer to ipod and listen on the way to school tomorrow... still, I'll listen anyhow, can't wait til tomorrow morning :-)... I'm so inpatient at times...lol....

sounds okay when playing @ 32KBit/s

just finished.
it hurts me to say it but it was bad. Not really the worst I've heard but far away from good.
Dont understand, if they have the opportunity to fix the bad bits in the studio, why they dont do it.
To be honest, if it was only for the vocals, I wouldnt see any need to buy the DVD. :(
They really would have gone better with recording the RAH show. Even the wembley shows were way better than this.

well I thought it was good personally. Is it me, but I was listening via my headphones and I thought the bass was quite heavy.... don't know if thats due to listening to it online and only @ 32 instead of something like 192, I don't know....

Can't wait for the dvd. What also is different, is that unlike the MSO dvd, which was studio edited quite alot so I believe, inbewtween songs, you could hear bass, guitar plucking, prob just them tuning or something, quite russly - guess that's all about recording live, you exspect that from a live show! :-)

All in all, I thought it was good, vocals were good, well, I thought, hey I would think meat is very good all the time even if he was off tune :-) :-)

Meat Rocks! They shoudl do something like this is the Uk to promote the new dvd, would work big time! I loved Blind as a Bat :-) and you could hear the crown cheer on RAR Dreams towards the end, where I guess the pyro's kick in :-) COOL!!

Think I'll check early tomorrow morning before school to see if you have uploaded the songs RadioMaster as I bet yours is better quality than my recordings :-)

Meat sticked to his promise to stay away from studio-overdubs. Brave, honest and rare. Makes this one a different cup of tea than most other "live" DVDs these days, with all the ups and downs that come with that decision. I can already imagine some comments on rockman, but to us it should be great to have the reall thing.

Anything For Love is the traditional version (not the modified one performed later on tour).
From those 6 aired I prefered the non-standard songs RnR Dreams (with sax solo and big finale), IACBTMN and Blind As A Bat.

as promised:

A radio broadcast does not make this recording copyright free.
If you show me WDR's permission for you/us to distribute this, I'll restore the links.

wasnt able to get them uploaded on a 'normal' server, but I hope this will do.
Have fun!
(I'm off to bed now after 2 1/2 hours of working on this)

Thanks Sir RJ

Having heard blind as a bat from the hamilton show i didn't think they captured it as well live as they managed to on the album.

I still stick by that on here...starts off really well but Meat doesn't sound well at all after that...the music on the other hand is good.

how come the links wont work for me? i wanna hear, i wanna hear! :(

thanks for uploading it :)

thanks for uploading....

I wanna hear it to, wasn't around last night to hear it any ideas where i can get it?

a hint :-) try Jim's Message Board....
