Blogathon # 39: Time for some Meat Loaf!
Time Posted: 4:00am EST
On March 20th of this year, I took both of my brothers out for a concert. Three weeks prior to that I purchased three floor seats ten rows from the stage to see Meat Loaf at Copps in Hamilton. It was an amazing show, and I loved every minute of it. I think my brothers were more surprised by how I knew every word to every song more than how I managed to score such amazing tickets so close to the show! I was happy to share a night like this with my brothers cause since I was living on the island for 11 years, moments like to share with that was few and far between. It was also three days before my little brother’s birthday, so we’re both glad he had a great time that night too. Here is the list of songs Meat sang that night:
– Paradise by the dashboard light
– Took the words right out of my Mouth
– Out Of the Frying Pan (And Into the fire)
– Life is a Lemon (And I want my money back)
– Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That)
– Rock & Roll Dreams Come True
– Objects in the Rearview Mirror
– I’m Still Alive
– The Monster Is Loose
– Bad For Good
– If It Ain’t Broke… Break It!
– Blind as a Bat
– Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad
– Bat Out Of Hell
Encore:
– Black Betty
– Mercury Blues
– It’s all coming back to me
– Gimme Shelter
Better late than never, but posted below are the photos that my older brother finally forwarded after so many months after the show. Here they are on OD for the first time since I went to that amazing concert… enjoy!

Yep. That didn’t last long. I officially hate you :p (Queso, not really …) Meat Loaf is the ONLY person I’ve not seen live and want to. And how funny. I am just now getting around to blogging about the Keith Urban/Wreckers concert from Friday night.

Damn it, you’ve got “out of the frying pan (and into the fire)” stuck in my head now.

I’ve been reading several of your posts. You have a lot of challenging thoughts on God that I am interested in catching up on. I was at a Meatloaf concer about 13 years ago (seems like last week). I absolutely loved it!!! Congratulations on the Blogathon!
