OT - RIP Meat Loaf

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Very Talented and though I never saw him, he supposedly put on a heck of a show. I guess he went into eternity without doing “that”.

 

[mcdawg22]

His name was Robert Paulson.

 

[Cooterpoot]

Hot take: He wasn't very good

 

[jethreauxdawg]

But he put on a good show and had a great name

Hot take: He wasn't very good

Two out of three ain’t bad

Wouldnt be a Sixpack thread without a terrible hot take from Cooter.

 

[HamSammich]

Not a hot take at all….

Super dumb take

He must have talked about fight club

 

[FQDawg]

He's legitimately one of the best singers in rock history. And I'd have said that even if he hadn't gone on to his great reward this morning.

Reminds me of the the old days at the Deville Cinema. That was the best cinema ever in Jackson. That's where I watched the Original Star Wars movie.

I preferred The Lamar.

its against the law to touch the dial when

Paradise by the dashboard light comes on the radio.

Meat Loaf ******* ruled. He was great. I even liked him when he was on the Apprentice.

 

[aTotal360]

He was a lot better than David Coverdale.

 

[GloryDawg]

I preferred The Lamar.

I watched Bruce Lee movies' there. That theater was a classic until it became a bar. Then it was a classic bar.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

His name was Robert Paulson.

Not sure who you are talking about, but

Marvin Lee Aday, better known as Meat Loaf

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

Hot take: He wasn't very good

You're right. He was GREAT!

 

[aTotal360]

Did a pretty good SSB at the All Star game.

 

[Felonious Junk]

Hasn’t seen fight club

 

[HotMop]

Back when I was in the USMC reserves I had to fly into LAX before heading out to 29 palms. I'm flying coach and this dude in all black sits next to me. I think nothing of it, 3 hour flight, not a word. Waiting on luggage and everyone is asking if he was cool. I'm like, huh...it was Meat Loaf.

We have lost some folks recently- Betty White, Bob Saget, Ron Franklin, Louie Anderson, and now Meat Loaf.
Thought these things use to just run in 3’s ?!?

His music isn't really my thing but he had an amazing voice.

 

[DawgInThe256]

I have a theory that (because of the age of television) we're in a time period where the number of "famous people" dying each day is at an all time high.

Nice

 

[Cooterpoot]

Obviously the older crowd loves his overly dramatic operetta type thing. Just not my thing at all.

 

[aTotal360]

Bruce, go ahead and delete this one. Trust me.

 

[Maroon Eagle]

Maybe you didn't catch the Suttleties...

Meat Loaf, an absolute powerhouse of a performer, has died at the age of 74. Bat Out Of Hell is a high water mark of the rock & roll era, a totem of all of its excess that’s simultaneously a spoof. https://t.co/hyhBSZDlbU— Stephen Thomas Erlewine (@sterlewine) January 21, 2022

Sidney Poitier died the other day, too. I had the same thought this morning about it used to just be 3s. But I think Dawginthe256 is probably on to something because a lot of people who were famous in the 60s, 70s and 80s, who we're all likely to know, are starting to get up there in years.

 

[Felonious Junk]

Were those at Suttle Hall?

 

[GloryDawg]

Were those at Suttle Hall?

was that the dorm nicknamed "The UN" or was it the other one at the other end of the street that was the same design building? I always get those two mixed up.

 

[Shmuley]

Hamlin was the UN. Suttle was the launching pad.

 

[Mobile Bay]

We called Suttle the vertical ghetto.

Not just an age thing. I'm 65 right in my wheel house and can't say I was big into his thing either. Probably a bunch of artist I like others would say the same. Kinda how music works.

 

[thekimmer]

Hamlin was the UN. Suttle was the launching pad.

In the years I was in Suttle there were several 'launchings' that I remember. Tallest building in the area with easily assessible balconies 24/7.

 

[GloryDawg]

That's right. Thanks. I always got those two mixed up.

 

[NOATLDAWG]

Maybe Bruce is just remembering the first rule... (let's hope that is the case)

So are you a Parrot Head or Dead Head?
