CASA DE CARNE CLEARWATER October 2008
(Preview)
It was an astounding night!! And once again as I drove back from the theatre my ears were still ringing and my senses still filled by a performance from Meat that I truly hope made him proud. I am still filled with wonder .. The stage is bathed in violet light and we hear the Indian war chant as we all leap t...

CASA DE CARNE Jutland, Denmark 15 August 2008
(Preview)
Press reviews again sadly unkind, but fans who have attended enjoyed the show and said Meat was in great form and fine voice. About 5000 people chose to go to the Meat Loaf concert instead of a "cultural night" which took place in downtown Kolding. It was a lovely summer's night with a fu...

CASA DE CARNE Bergen, Norway 08 August 2008

It was a wonderful last night of the UK shows .. We stand under a canopy of clear blue summer evening sky, Meat is glimpsed in the wings and a huge cheer goes up .. the smoke machine billows faux smoka across the violet and indigo lights illuminating the high stage, and the insistent beat of the In...

CASA DE CARNE Amsterdam 4 August 08
(Preview)
No reviews yet that I'd give house room to. Although I've seen from someone who attended that he gave a fine show, full of energy and life as always. Someone on the UK forum posted that he'd kind of sung along during the intro to Dead Ringer that he'd never been to a place like Amsterdam ... and then sho...

CASA DE CARNE Donegal 16 July
(Preview)
I wasn't able to get to this concert, but two brief press reviews show that Meat was up to his terrific current form and delighted his fans yet again. The concert was held in a marquee. It was again raining, and the show could not take place on the 15th as planned because the whole set-up was just not con...

Just a marvellous and wonderful night ..

CASA DE CARNE Plymouth 26 June 2008

From the moment he came on stage with The Boy Is Bad to the final song Let's Do It in the Road, he was on top form. Looking spiffy in the black satin shirt with the sparkly embroidered cuffs and collar (no waistcoats this time) and a black cowboy hat at the start (which fitted him perfectly) he led a fast pace...
