Michael Aday (Metloaf) has passed away.

Let us also say goodbye today to the passing on Thursday of comedian Louie Anderson at age 68 of cancer! I liked his comedy style! Both Louie and Meatloaf were big heavy guys. 

RIP.

RIP. Thanks.

Ellen Foley still with us and making fine new music.

RIP

I always liked the cover art on Bat Out of Hell by Richard Corben.  I used to read a lot of the Heavy Metal magazine in those days, he was a regular.

I saw him live at the Roxy in West Hollywood. He was one of the featured players in the original L.A. production of the Rocky Horror Show...yes, the live version that preceded the movie release. Loud, hammy and full of fun. He owned that stage. And oh yeah, he showed up at one of my sister's parties. He grabbed a microphone, ordered the band to play one of his numbers and kept us in laughter for a good five-to-ten minutes. Rest in Peace!
