Meat Loaf London Event Cancelled

**Diane** · 05 Oct 2007, 17:01

Regrettably the Meat Loaf Event at the Mayfair Hotel on Tuesday, 9th October has been cancelled due to reasons beyond the control of the organisers.

Marlene from Select has personally tried to contact everyone who had booked to attend the occasion and she has now asked me to post this message here.

**RadioMaster** · 05 Oct 2007, 17:53

makes you wonder who screwed up...

howlerformeatloaf · 05 Oct 2007, 17:56

Thanks for the reply just wanted to make sure he is okay. We would not want anything happening to him. Still concerts to look forward to.

Thanks for posting this Diane, Luckily Marlene phoned me to let me know this afternoon.
She was very sorry.

Oh well at least there is a concert to look forward to now.

Bad news.

Still plenty to look forward to though we've got the concerts and the DVD release looming!

**The Flying Mouse** · 05 Oct 2007, 20:07

Alternative?

Well i am well gutted! I have paid for train tix, that are none refundable.

But what gets me is, someone out there obviously couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery!

I know Meat is not at fault, i am not having a go at him, but what the hell!

I got an email from Marlene saying she'll take up any request for out of pocket expenses if that helps

Thanks monstro,i appreciate your reply.

I have not received an email yet,it was just a message on me answerphone.

**Monstro** · 05 Oct 2007, 22:15

she emailed as my mobile was turned off. I'd ask if I was you, don't ask don't get and all that jazz.

**allrevvedup** · 05 Oct 2007, 22:21

Maybe the fact that, far as i can see, there was no mention of this on .net should've been a tip off...then again maybe not as i seem to find out more announcements here then on the official site.

I feel sorry for all those who had made plans to go, could someone scheduling an event nine days before the European Tour starts just be asking for trouble in the first place?

Whatever happened someone messed up

**RadioMaster** · 05 Oct 2007, 22:26

I think the least the people who screwed up could do, was actually giving the people who made plans a proper reason or explanation why the thing was cancelled, but what do they say? "reasons beyond the control of the organisers"

MeatGrl1 · 05 Oct 2007, 22:29

Will our £75 be refunded?

I hope so

greg · 05 Oct 2007, 22:35

i feel so sorry for the people that have booked trains for this event , they should have had meat sign up to it , before they sold the tickets , not saying , they never did , but if you think to yourself this event came out , of the blew it makes you think

**allrevvedup** · 05 Oct 2007, 22:37

which leads us to believe it could be anything...like the room for the Mayfair was double booked, Meat Loaf already had another commitment, they didn't sell enough tickets or they didn't want to screen it unless RJ was there

Someone knew enough about it to try and sell tickets on Ebay.

There's something about any promotion to do with Meat Loaf, over the last few years, that always seems to take a wrong turn.

greg · 05 Oct 2007, 22:41

ha my thoughts all reved up , but people and true fans that have took time of work and , paid out for trains , tickets etc etc , leaves a bad taste in you mouth , ifeel for each and everyone of you , , we will all make the ibils ONE HELL OF A NIGHT

I like that thought! they cancelled it because I couldnt attend! lol

but on a serious note:
I'd like to suggest that somehow the article on the frontpage was changed/took off there, as anyone visiting mlukfc.com sees the announcement of the screening as first info.
