h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I see you've got the Meat Loaf picture from my guide entry on your page. Darn good show.

the guy is aROCK GOD. how could he not be. i didn't realise you'd done an entry on the loafster. i swiped the piccie from the piccie library.
i saw him play wembley arena a few years back. wow! he was fanbloodytastic.

xx

Yeahm, the picture was created for my entry: A863435

I saw him live for the first time last year ina tent in Liverpool (they put abig top up at the Kings Dock and have concerts. It's a 4,500 capacity tent!) and he was marvelous! You got the new album yet?

not yet, not that i don't want it, it's just that all funds are going towards a new kitchen and motorbike lessons....


.....torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
and the last thing i see
is my heart still beating
still beating
as i'm rising out of my body and flying away
like a bat out of hell

I must say one of the highlights of his concert at Liverpool was when one of the venue stewards went on stage to inform him that he'd overrun the curfew (this at the end of "BAt") and he just looked at the guy and said "F**k off", and launched into a rock 'n'roll medley.

Glorious.

i first really got to know of meat loaf when watching rocky horror(OMG)12yrs ago when he played eddy. yes, and i fell instantly in love with frank n furter. and yes, the other half is still worried about me...........

Oh that's a cracking film.

My first Loaf experience of any kind was the magnificently overblown video for "Anything for Love".

I was watching Liquid News on BBC3 the other night, and Christopher Biggins was on, and he revealed that he was in Rocky horror as one of the assorted Transylvanians, and got completely and utterly stoned in a hotel room with the Loaf...

yup. oh, not that i condone that even if it is really cool because er, if you take it to the logical extreme derry irvine of lairg is kinda, well, my boss. still you can't stop rock n roll.

Ah, criminal justice system, eh?

(well if it's good enough for the fat scottish git's son, it's good enough for us. I habve a part time job as a clerk for a solicitor, incidentally)

i lurk in a north london crown court denying juror excusals. well, you have to make your work fun.

xx

There was one of our cases where seven of the potential jurors knew witnesses!

sounds about right, are you sure it wasn't wood green?
xx

Nope. Warrington in Cheshire.

still, it's the kind of thing we get. i don't want to be rude, but i'm going off line now coz i have this oh so lovely civil service application form to fill in(trying to escape to another dept at a higher grade)and it is a total and utter b*tch of a pig of an a*se of a form.
