That I would like to know as well, anyone?

Have a nice evening peeps

thank you both so very very much. what a privelage to see and experience footage of mr loaf and mr steinman reunited for such an amazing and long overdue accolade.

I'm delighted Jim was there to receive his honour, and more delighted meat had the job of introducing him :)

for any fan of the legendary partnership of meat and jim, it's quite simply superb.

if i may ask, what was the experience like? what was the steinman medley performance like?

a once in a life time opportunity, and thank you both again for capturing and sharing it with us.

Fabulous!!

He says, "Which I need more Fish Oil." It was a continuation of a joke about the microphone (his instructions were to leave it at the piano)....he couldn't remember the title of IACBTMN. And as Meat has those comical inconvenient "moments"...he seems to think adding more fish oil is the key.

Don't you just love the internet? I know there's a lot of bad stuff that circulates on it, but it is just SO great when we get to see things like this, which would never be possible without it. Thanks R.

Instead of expressing comments about Jim's physical state and neck that looks like the one of my french bulldog, does anyone have a link to Meat's performance of Bat??

Yes Please!

Smithie · 18 Jun 2012, 16:18

Thanks for posting the awesome videos and pics. Congrats to Jim! Meat looks sharp and Patti is gorgeous. My dream team collaboration is for Jim to write a new duet for Meat and Patti.

Tri.somethin · 19 Jun 2012, 05:25

What an amazing night it seems. Too bad there are no performance videos up

Would have LOVED to see that

Tri.somethin · 19 Jun 2012, 05:29

Favorite Meat moment:

him breaking down as he said "I can never repay him"

Favorite Jim moment:

"I always fear my headstone will be heavily edited...like my songs tonight...for those of you watching Glee" LOL

I was gonna say that he was reminding me of The Emperor in 'Star Wars'.

Lighten up guys, Jim would have a sense of humour. I'm sure that he could have that fixed if he wanted, but he has character that I wouldn't have.

And YES I would love to see the performances. They have to floating around the internet somewhere.

Yup. He knows that if it wasn't for Steinman, it's LIKELY (note that word) that he would not have made it. And not nearly as big.

They both helped each other in ways that cannot be measured.

Yes yes yes! Just watched the clips. Cheers R.
Let's hope the next time the boys appear together on stage is on Bat IV release day. I don't believe that dream is so far-fetched!

Or maybe the world premier of the Bat musical?

Let's not chaps.

The subject of wether Bat III should or should not have been called Bat III is an old one, and one that's never going to be resolved to everybody's satisfaction.

There's no sense in raking over old dead coals, especially on a thread celebrating the recognition and honour given to Jimmy in being inducted to the Hall Of Fame.

White of High · 20 Jun 2012, 01:15

That was a nice vid, Meat looks great, Jim looks so bad. If you ask me, no chance to Jim & Meat work together. After I saw Jim's leaving the stage I grabbed my head and shaked. He looks very old and... hell... sick. Anyway, it was nice to see Jim again but no chance to work together. Meat can record Steinman songs but not under Jim's hand...
