If you clicked on the link...you were at least interested. So, it did it's job. If you didn't click the link....then you were uninterested at all to begin with. Just sayin'.

What I think of that video has nothing do with what I'm intending to spend or not to spend my money on and I don't think that I "demanded" or "damned" anything in this thread. I responded to a post by Evil One that was rather marketing-related.



Speaking of "entitlement": I'm tired of people who feel "entitled" to control what others must think or say.

You read my mind Suzie ... sigh ...

I think it's pretty clear it's simply a bit of promo put out through their own site by Concert-one (a relatively fledgling company) who filmed the DVD more to promote their activities, not a promotional tool made by Meat's label/distributor. To me it was more a fun teaser and I enjoyed it. Would I prefer a promotional video made by a fan and featuring Batman or the Penguin, or simply enjoy this for what it's worth and look forward to something more designed to specifically promote the DVD nearer the time? I know where the smart money's placed!

To me it's not the promo, wasn't intended to make anyone buy a DVD that is months away from release, didn't rock my world but was fun to watch, so thanks RSG for the link I'm looking forward to seeing what comes out nearer the issue of the DVD, and definitely to the release itself I wonder too why almost everything anyone finds has to be subjected to such detailed scrutiny and criticism .. but that seems to be the pattern, so I just enjoy what is found, and look forward to what will emerge later, along with all the other great things that will be coming for Meat Loaf fans

What? This is the best they could do? A trailer that looks like something out of a horror movie, the only song showcased muted in favour of flashy light effects, typos, songs missing from the setlist and songs attributed to the wrong songwriter? Really?

If I wasn't a Meat Loaf fan, I wouldn't be enticed to buy this :S

It's not even Meat's promo company that have done it, the DVD doesn't come out until Feb, there is plenty of time for proper promo. I highly doubt that this is the only promo that will ever be seen for this DVD.

I'm just thankful to see anything at all, and that we have it confirmed that the DVD will be out in Feb.

It may even be a teaser for another behind the scenes documentary or for some extras for the DVD!!! They cant show you all that and it not be on the DVD!

Only time will tell...

February, its all on you now!

Opinions = good.

Personal attacks = bad.

Please play nicely and stay on topic. Really don't want to have to clean this thread up again.

It was enough of a teaser to have Paul, Justin and John to post it on FB and Ginny tweeted the link too. I'm with you.....glad to have seen it, and we have an expected time frame for it's release.

So, I like this promo a lot, a lot, a lot. It finally frames a Meat Loaf Show where I see it...as an uncontrollable beast about to tear havoc on the crowd. I have never failed to see a Meat Loaf audience go from normal crowd to an absolute frenzy when Mr. Loaf hits the stage. Good work!

This won't make me buy the DVD either. I can neither form a negative nor a positive opinion about the performance based on that. A couple of nice pics of Paul Crook surely won't make me fork out money for it.
I will of course be buying the dvd, but this video wouldn't inspire me to buy it.
Where are the shots of Patti for the male audience?
There are more shots of Paul than of Meat in this promo video.

That wasn't sexist. At every show I have been to, men in the audience say Patti is hot. Just like women say Randy is hot. Patti is very talented, but she's also gorgeous and men appreciate her beauty.

As Dave says, it captures the excitement of behind the scenes and the excitement of a crowd at a show, but I don't believe it IS "the promo video". I't a sort and fun piece put out by the company which shot the DVD and which is a fairly new company trying to promote what THEY do.

I'd prefer to wait and see what Meat and the label/distributor come up with nearer the time. Who would launch a formal promotional campaign in early November for something not due out until February the following year? It would be waste of time, money and effort imo as the market doesn't have great memory or patience, and all the things being advertised for Christmas would push it out of their heads
