    For people that do both singing and acting he was one of the best - very good at both IMHO.

    I guess he should've followed his own advice and "Won't do that."

    Keep your friends close, keep your drinks closer...

    What a surprise, "porkchop" just completely lied about cause of death for "meatloaf".

    It appears Michael Aday, "meatloaf" died of Covid after falling sick a week or so go. His vaccination status isn't being revealed, although he had recently spoken out against vaccinee mandates. That doesn't mean he was unvaxed. There are a number of people against the idea of mandates, but still when it came to their health, chose to get the vaccine. Aday did recently state "if I die, I die" regarding covid which leads one to believe he may not have been vaccinated, but I am not going to make that jump. Either way RIP.

    BTW< I saw Meatloaf at Hard Rock here in Vegas about 5 years ago so he would have been about 69 at the time. I wasn't really that familiar with him, as I attended with someone else who was a fan. The concert was ok. I certainly recognized a few of his hits. To his credit, unlike some of the other 70 year old Rockers still performing, Meatloaf wasn't dressing like he was in his 20's. He dressed and looked like a 69 year old man...like he could have been someone's grandfather, which I am sure he was. And that was a little weird, listening to this grandfatherly type figure singing about "paradise by the dashboard lights". But overall, I enjoyed the concert.

    As for Louie Anderson, never really cared for his comedy. I played blackjack with him in Atlantic City, it was one of the casinos in the back by the bay or inlet, not Borgata, so either Harrah's or the property that is now Golden Nugget (was a trump property back then). It was a $5 table. Louie knew basic strategy for the most part and played ok, but he whined every time the dealer drew to a 20 or 21, saying "can you believe that" or "would you look at that". It seemed like I was watching an extension of his act.

    I'll give you that.
    I seen him in concert twice.
    I could have the years wrong here since I am going off of memory and not looking it up.
    I think it was the summer of 1993, when I was back in Cleveland, I got tickets to this amphitheater in or near Richfield Ohio.
    Really close to where the Cleveland Cavs used to play in the Coliseum before they moved downtown to the Gund Arena.
    And the Indians moved to the Jake.
    I used to work for the Marriot down there in Room Service.
    I would go to the Jake and get 6 dollar Bleacher Seats for afternoon games as I worked in the mornings from 6-2.
    Anyways, back to my Meatloaf Story.
    So I got these 2 Gold Circle Tickets, 5th row back from the stage, for my PoPs and me since he was a big fan of MeatLoaf or maybe it is Meat Loaf.
    Now that I think about it, maybe it was 1994 because when I bought these tickets I also bought 2 Tickets to Pink Floyd's Division Bell Tour located at the old Cleveland Browns Municipal Stadium.
    Ahhh the memories... anyways...
    I bought them months in advance.
    I had this old Pontiac Bonneville that I bought for 200 dollars lol.
    Imagine that, buying a used car that ran for 200 dollars and that I drove for a couple of years and put over 10,000 miles on.
    Gas Prices were like 76 cents a gallon at that time at BP and Sunoco.
    I digress yet again.
    So its the day of the MeatLoaf Concert for Bat out of Hell II and my car was busted.
    I had to limp it up to the shop and they fixed it.
    A few months later that mechanic actually bought the car off of me for 100 dollars lol.
    Anyways, my pops was a Vietnam Heroy, I suppose but he loved to drink.
    Heroy is an inside joke, not a misprint.
    So he got all drunked up... actually I think its drunk up but drunked up sounds better to me.
    Anyhoo... I had a bitch of a time waking his ass up and dragging him into that boat of a car of mine which had monster play in the steering wheel.
    I'm sure you have driven the type of car I am talking about.
    We get to the pavilion with some time to spare and my PoPs seemed wide awake which is somewhat of a miracle.
    He makes some new friends and they share some of their Devils Lettuce with him.
    At that time I never took drugs.
    I grew up in that era when this Egg is your Brain on Drugs.
    Needless to say the show was flawless.
    The best Opera I think I have seen that was masquerading as a Rock Concert.
    Good Times.
    The next time I seen MeatLoaf was in Vegas a few years back with my Uncle.
    My father had long passed away.
    I think it was at the Venetian or Palazzo or maybe it was the Paris.
    Something like that and it doesn't matter enough for me to look it up.
    The show was nowhere near as good as the one back in the Cleveland Area but good enough.
    I didn't like the Flaming Skull Image being Subliminally pushed down my throat, on the movie screen, during Out of the Frying Pan but I lived with it.
    And to close this long winded post I bought Mid-Field Tickets at that Pink Floyd concert and they were horrible lol.
    Should of got something in the stands.
    We were like 70 yards away from the stage on a flat area.
    Couldn't see Shit.
    And we got ripped off on a sheet of Blotter Acid which I actually tried.
    Good thing it didn't work because I probably would of lost my damn mind since I never tried any drugs before.
    We did buy some balloons that were filled with Nitrous so I guess that's a Whippet!?
    They worked.
    I got drunk and was giving my Father all sorts of grief, making a bunch of noise and standing on my chair fighting with people.
    lol... ahhhh youth.

    Decent Song
    Good Video.
    Not my favorite.
    Very Long Song IIRC it's something like 11 minutes.
    I think my favorite is Life is a Lemon and I want my Money Back!!

    I think MeatLoaf was protesting with the Australians about the Mandates.
    I read something that he actually contracted Covid and died from that.
    He had a bunch of Comorbidities including Asthma.
    Not exactly eating right or exercising.
    That sort of proves the theory... Covid + Old Age (74) + Comorbidities + Obesity = Death.
    Can't live forever even though it appears most of you are damn well trying to swim upstream.

    TLDR.
    You are too serious.
    You lie too much.
    You don't get the jokes.
    You are the Joke!

    Oh this is a bit unrelated but thought I would throw it out there after that long stupid story of mine.
    I also took my uncle to see Tom Jones around the same time MeatLoaf did his show in Vegas.
    It was at the Paris.
    We got the tickets from HouseSeats.
    Near the stage so that was pretty good.
    This is back when HouseSeats was a serious advantage play.
    Something like 80 dollars for two years and always two tickets.
    That was back when Rock was 50 years old and everyone was doing a anniversary tour.
    We must of seen over 20 shows out at Buffalo Bills.
    The Tom Jones concert was pretty damn entertaining IMO.
    HouseSeats went to shit a year or two after that but they had a good 4 to 5 year run.
    I also got HouseSeat tickets to catch a showing of Jubilee on the last year of its run.
    Nice to actually see a real Vegas Show like that.
    Did you know they had certain nights/shows when the girls didn't cover there mammary glands?

    Oops... sorry about that.
    I lied.
    Not Tom Jones.
    It was Engelbert Humperdinck.
    Same Difference.
    Not too many people can say they seen Engelbert Humperdinck live in concert.
    Probably not too many youngins know who he is or was.

    Don't get me started bro. I'll never forget the time I was playing BJ at Bally's (now Grand Sierra Resort) in Reno in the very early 90's, when some of the showgirls from Oba-Oba (or whatever that Brazilian Carnival show was called) were in "plain clothes" walking around the casino floor and doing some recreational gambling in spots here and there. When people talk about traffic stoppers, I believe this is where the name comes from. Good god.

    '74 Dodge Dart. I bought it for $400 in the mid 80's. Drove OK until I tried to steam clean the engine a year or so into ownership and I guess when the dirt that was keeping the rings hermetically sealed was cleaned away it lost compression and that was that.

    Reminds me of when I had lunch at the buffet at Planet Ho in 2013. Suddenly, 100 size 0's walk in, mini-skirts with sashes. The Miss Universe Contest was taking a lunch break and they all were sent to the buffet. Most just walked around in little groups, stopped at a food station and pointed at the food.

    Good one JP. Between all the VCTers, we might have enough stories for a Traffic Stoppers thread ;-)

    Engelbert is in my area in February. Still touring believe it or not.

    Actually saw Tom Jones a couple years ago at the Sands in PA, now Wind Creek. Guy still put on a great show and moved around a lot.

    They don’t make them like these guys anymore.

    641 --------> 641^2 = 200^2 + 609^2.

    Hmm.

    207^2 + 609^2 = 413730 = (4*10*10^4) + (1373*10) ---> 411_114_137_731, or, (41*10091 -1) ---> 411_911. Or, [40 + (10^1*(41370-3^0*1))] ---> 411_114_137_731.

    Fucking FANTASTIC!
