From that angle I think it's just as well that you do not see him properly. No one would look particularly good with this angle.

We also all know what he looks like, so I think it was cool with such a picture.

I'm not a huge fan of the cover either. As others have said you can't really see Meat because he's in the dark and from the angle they've shot the picture at, I think it makes him look heavier too.

I think Ginny ended up on the cover because of where she was stood when they took the photo of Meat. Patti would have been to the right of him and so would have been missed out of the photo, then again even Meat is pretty much a shadow in this picture.

I'm guessing you're right but it doesn't seem fair for Ginny to be on the cover when John and Patti have been in the band for around two decades.

I'm pretty sure John and Patti won't give two hoots about it.

Exactly. The main thing is that they're going to be on the DVD

I agree and I know I said I dot like the cover which is true, but I'm much more concerned with the content and having all the encores and stuff stay intact. I'm hoping for a DVD that rivals MSO

You can't be sure about that. Meat said that when one band member gets a solo, the others want one too. It's the same principle.



Surely there were a bunch of photos to choose from. This seems like an odd choice. A dvd cover is supposed to grab your attention and this one doesn't.
But I'm looking forward to seeing the dvd and hopefully it is filmed well.

That's individual. I think it does.

This is a Meat Loaf release not a John or Patti release.

It's not a Ginny release either so why is she lit up on the cover?

This pic just doesn't capture the thrill and excitement of a Meat Loaf concert, imo. Meat sets the standard so high for live performers. I've seen some amazing live shots that capture his shows but this doesn't, imo.

As others have said, the most important thing is the content of the dvd.

She got in that shot by lucky chance, if Patti was standing there at the time it would be her instead. And btw who really gives a damn what band member gets on the cover??? I know I don't.

I care about the band. They work hard and I'm grateful for all they contribute to the shows.

Danny Miranda is on the cover too so they didn't single anyone out. The band gets the respect they deserve on the dvd and studio albums.

My point is that Meat isn't lit up on the cover of his dvd. Why isn't there a good live shot of Meat for fans who might be buying their first Meat Loaf dvd?

LOL It does create some controversity here on the fan board, only when you walk trough a store and see this cover it won't attrack people to give it a better look.

The DVD cover looks like the cheap '3 for 10 euro' concert dvd's, that you find in the sale dumpsters (the ones that barely have stereo sound and no extra features). I can't believe this is the actual cover they gonna use. I also doubt the info is accurate. Unless Meat decided to scrap one or two songs from his 2 hour concert

Either the 100 minutes is a load of ~~~~, or they've trimmed out all the talk about Patrick, or they've dropped a couple of songs. :shrugs:
