What's true is
Meat is appearimg in the Royal Variety Show this year .. which is marvellous, and exciting :)
It will be televised as always after the event .. so we'll all be able to see it, either at the time or through later seeing what someone has captured from the TV :)

What may well be probable is that, like most performers on the RVS, he won't want to say before the show exactly what he's going to do on the night!

I can't see it being anyone like Jim etc, as that would only be a "special guest" for Meat Loaf fans...

Just hoping they haven't got some crappy "famous" female singer in to do IACBTMN

Maybe Celine

*AndyK* · 09 Nov 2006, 17:34

So, who said it has to be female? Who says it has to be one of Meat's songs?

It could be a bloke duetting on a classic recorded by someone else. I'm guessing we'll have to wait and see it on TV ...

daveake · 09 Nov 2006, 17:50

I'm betting it's Cher doing DR.

But I could be wrong

Bonnie?

Dave

**RadioMaster** · 09 Nov 2006, 18:17

cher was my thought too

**The Flying Mouse** · 09 Nov 2006, 18:25

To be billed as a suprise special guest, it has to be someone well known.

Patti?
Jimmy?
Marion?

Hardly household names (even though well known in our own circles)

So who?

Fisrt person to cross my mind is Cher.

It's a duet, and Cher is the only famous person Meat has done a well known duet with.

But I don't know if Cher would be up for it.

It would be one HELL of a hot ticket to see them together after all these years

Bonnie?

Could be.

She's always been linked to Meat for some stranger reason, even though the only thing they have in common is one hell of a song writter.

They never appeared on a song together before (or since) she did a few guest backing vocals on A kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste.

There is a third option.

See if you can take a guess from these clues..........

A person Meat HAS dueted with.

They are English.

They have something to flog right now................

Not got it?...............

Roger Daltry from The Who singing Bad Attitude

Though I think they'll both have to play the part of the father these days

mszee · 09 Nov 2006, 19:22

Think it might be Marion...

Although Bonnie Tyler showed up as a surprised guest on DE concert...

To put it bluntly, if I WASN'T a Meat Loaf fan, and I was told that this famous guy was going to sing with a SUPRISE SPECIAL GUEST (cue fireworks) and Marion Raven walked out, i'd be pretty anoyed

Hey, I like Marion, but she isn't a well known, and to bill her as a "SUPRISE SPECIAL GUEST" isn't really on.

Yeah, we know who she is, but the public don't.

You might as well let Joe Bloggs on stage and bill him as a suprise special guest.

I might streak across the stage with a Bat III poster stuck to my arse and say that I'M a suprise special guest

.

Would be a laugh shaking hands with the Queen in the lineup after the show

Since my invitation is still in the mail...I might miss your special appearance...but since I am pretty sure it's arriving any day...still looking forward to it...

Oh, I think that's a good guess.

**RadioMaster** · 09 Nov 2006, 20:11

Nah, I wouldnt call someone singing and someone else playing guitar (these little bits from BfG) a duet.
And it says it´s a classical duet, I wouldnt call BfG a classic.

Bonnie Tyler is atm in a record contract as she is singing a duet together with german singer Matthias Reim, dont know if that may cause a problem...

DIZZY DRUMMER · 09 Nov 2006, 21:49

All I can say is:

WHAT TOOK THEM SOOO BLOODY LONG !!!!!

They have had Crap on in the past - so why ignore TALENT

Sapphire Lady · 10 Nov 2006, 10:27

Barry Manilow is also on the list so could maybe be Meat and Barry doing Read Em and Weep. That would be horrific

Don't. Ever. Say. That. Again.

You have been warned lol!

**RadioMaster** · 10 Nov 2006, 14:02

also REAW is neither classical nor a duet.

Think it will be rather hysterical...

**The Flying Mouse** · 10 Nov 2006, 15:01

*Looks at the ban button*

No, you couldn't have them on the same stage.

You just, couldn't

mszee · 10 Nov 2006, 15:08

Nah...you couldn't ban ME...could you???

I thought Barry's version was rather funny...

lorenzoduke · 10 Nov 2006, 18:53

Anyone know what Tim will be doing?

Maybe Meat can do In The Land Of The Pig. After all, the lyrics do say '****** off', and you can't get much more English than that. Although it might finish them off in the Royal box...

Paradise with someone ghastly like Debra Stephens or something....I sure hope not.

Well they do mention Spamalot as one of the productions and he is starring as King Arthur in the US Broadway version right now - so probably something to do with that.

No he isn't ... he's starring in the London version of Spamalot now.

Maybe Meat can do Land of the Pig, then Tim can do the Flying Cow bit from Spamalot
