Meat Loaf Proves Theater Gyre Drives Rock Fever in Northeast
Meat Loaf, a 275 pound performer, becomes a major Northeast draw on the strength of Bat Out Of Hell. The act blends epic songs by Jim Steinman with a theatrical stage show suiting Meat Loaf’s dramatic voice and sweep. Steinman arranged the act and draws on Springsteen influences while Meat Loaf recalls Shakespeare and Broadway roots in New York and college dates.
