Australian release date ??

aussielovesmeat · 10 May 2003, 13:45

I rang the local record shop today hoping for some good news as to when we could expect CHSIB here, couldn't believe it when they said at least TWO MONTHS and maybe longer.

I can't believe it, at this rate everyone else will have worn their's out !!!!

Can anyone shed some light on why we have such a delay ??

We are in the same boat in America, looking at at least 3 months and possibly more. Here the problem is the lack of a contract with an American record company, perhaps it is the same issue in Austrailia. I couldn't wait and bought a UK version of it through Amazon- it was well worth it, I listen to it constantly.

WOW, thanks Meat, didn't expect a reply from the man himself !!

Thanks Sherrie for answering me too, I thought CHSIB was already out in the US

I can stand the wait if the rest of the album is anything like "Did I say that",
I absolutely LOVE IT !!!

It should be out in NZ much sooner than that, possibly late this month or early next. One music shop told me the 15th, and Universal (record company) told me early June. So you could perhaps order it from NZ.

Thanks for the info Shane !!! Wonder why it's being released so much earlier than us, strange.
Anyway, I thought about it last night, can I wait or not, answer NOT

so I ordered it from the UK. I've still got my name down in local record shop for five copies, going to give 4 away as pressies.

Thanks again Shane!

"To my friend from down under, The Album will be out in OcT...... I will be there in Oct. , Tour dates will go on sale in Oct.... All I can say is sorry for the delay, It was all about promotion.

Meat"

Thanks for the update for Australia Meat !!!!! That's great news!!!!
Congratulations on CHSIB, it is a totally awesome album, I just love it !!!
It was a very long wait, but hey all Great things are worth waiting for aren't they.

Does anyone know how to find out where Meat will be when he comes Down Under, what shows or Stores he will be at ???
Is it the type of thing that is posted here??
Sorry for my ignorance......

The place I prefer to go for tour info is at http://www.kasiminfo.com, which is a Kasim Sulton site run by Sue W. Some info can also be found at http://www.meatloaf-oifc.com. There are lots of other fan sites that have tour info, but these two are the ones I refer to the most. I don't know if the dates will actually be posted here. They might be.

Thanks for the tips on websites to look at Shane

I will check these out, hopefully they will have some info as the date gets closer.
Meat will probably only go to Sydney and Melbourne, but fingers crossed he will come to Adelaide too.

Thanks again.
