[color=red]This Can't Be True??!![/color]
 

To all the UK fans -

Someone posted on OIFC that Meat has been rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment!! Is this true?! Here in the US, we're dying to get the truth - can you foks in the UK help with this?

Hi Dottie and I have seen this and are checking out on B'ham news but there has already been one hoax message posted there so lets hope it is not true

Rosie

God, I hope this is just another cruel hoax (I'm not even going to say joke because it just isn't funny)! :evil:

Thanks for keeping an eye on this - much appreciated!!!

Debbi V

Nothing on BBC Birmingham news I'll keep looking can anyone at the fan club contact his management


Rosie

Rosie, I don't know where you live. You might get a quicker response if you call the news channel themselves to confirm the bad news. I hope it's not true. Meat GET WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!

We've tried a recorded message is all you get and the poster has not identified which radio station/ i'll keep trying

Rosie

I've just watched the local Brimingham news and there was no mention of it. I've been through all the Sky news channels and no mention. I've checked all the local Birmingham news channels on the internet and no mention. Unless the news is being kept secret I think this may be a hoax as it all started with one guy on the OIFC site saying he'd seen in on the local Birmingham news

I'm beginning to think you are right someone has already posted on there today that the rescheduled manchester gig had been cancelled and the MEN deny this



Rosie

I'll pop over to OIFC and post what's been found (or not) so far.

Thanks, guys - Debbi V

I have posted on the oifc and asked the originator to say which news channel he heard it on so we can verify



Rosie

Steve G. just posted again on OIFC:

"Well Just heard an update: Meat is currently in a intensive care unit an Birmingham Hospital, under going major tests may need a operation but uncertain yet the tour may well be cancelled and rescheduled for some time in spring if all is ok but meat’s advisors are advising him to retire from live gig’s permanently for his long term health. Please all of us pray for the king of rock Meat Loaf. Get well soon meat the uk loves ya. [ if anyone else here’s anything let us all know ] "

Where is he getting this info that no one else iss seeing??

Debbi V

i have asked steve again to say where he got this info

Rosie

I hope that he is wrong. Too bad he wouldn't say where he is getting his information.

ok deep breaths - first think is this person a regular oifc poster

remember there are certain people that get their kicks like this and have been going around posting dodgy stuff for a long time.

Having said that - i think it warrents an official answer and will email oifc urgently asking for confirmation.

If Anne or R. can email the management company that'd be great also anyone who has any contact please use these

Have already done this no reply from OIFC and R is offline


Rosie

I note that steve g has not left an email address


still think this is a hoax can anyone local to B'ham check ceefax
