Sad day indeed 😢
If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Gutted to see this on the news.
Only one way to see this big man, I was privileged to see him live mid '90s.
My head still spins.
He's currently being played at high volume on the CD player.

People may be expecting me to make a joke about Meatloaf's passing...

But I won't do that!!

Saw him inn Aberdeen before his heart probl;ems.He was absolutely brilliant and his interaction with the audience was first class.Saw him again in Glasgow after his comeback.Since the tour had been cancelled we thought the mail was a refund but he went ahead and did rearranged tour.He sat playing/singing for it and had a young lad doing the running and jumping.Given the circs it was again brilliant and I was shocked to find people I knew knocking it.Heard a recording yesterday where he said "I am not a legend ,icon or star I am just a guy with a job" Just a great pro.

Will be sadly missed.
