I would emulate him as best I could. I have a full stage set with a motorbike and a big picture of the album cover Bat Out Of Hell 2 at the back

I've gone back to doing Elton John tribute acts more now as a result of all this. It's less hassle than being a Meatloaf tribute act any day.

That Meat Loaf guy always came off as a total egotistical one trick pony dickhead to me. I'll bet the tribute act is better than actual Meat Loaf, the washed up hack.

I agree, Mr. Brian. I was never a Meatloaf fan (on the dinner plate or turntable).

I'm pretty fond of the dinner plate version.

In all my years of cooking, I have never made it. I don't like stuffing at Thanksgiving either.

Do you always use breadcrumbs? My wife makes a no-breadcrumb meatloaf which I'm not that crazy about.

That's like one of the Brits saying they don't like Sheep's Bladder Pudding.

Do you have black pudding over there? Saw someone making it on the telly once and it put me off for a while (just looked like a bucket full of congealed blood).

He was pretty good in Fight Club, and he does a good job on Ghost Hunters. He's good friends with Grant and Jason. They call him Meat.

I like a tangy tomato sauce with my meatloaf.

"pudding" in the US is a custard-type dessert.

However, my mom is from eastern Europe - my grandma and she would occasionally indulge in blood sausage and grilled onions. I did not partake
