Classic Rock Revisited has posted a review of legendary rocker MEAT LOAF's April 2nd show in Newkirk, Oklahoma online. An excerpt is available below.

The setlist on the night was as follows:

'Hot Patootie (Bless My Soul)'

'If It Ain’t Broke, Break It'

'Bat Out of Hell'

'Peace On Earth'

'Living On The Outside'

'Los Angeloser'

'You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth (Hot Summer Night)'

- acoustic solo -

'Rock And Roll Dreams Come True'

- piano solo -

'I’d Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That)'

- acoustic solo -

'Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad'

'Paradise By The Dashboard Light'

'All Revved Up With No Place to Go'

Encore:

'Mercury Blues'

A sonic blast filled the air and Meat took center stage as the band pounded out 'Hot Patootie (Bless My Soul)' from the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Next, Meat sang 'If It Ain’t Broke, Break It' from the lackluster selling Bat Out of Hell III. The next tune, the original 'Bat Out of Hell', was a surprise appearing as the third song in the set. Meat Loaf explained after the tune was over by stating, “I am sure many of you are shocked to see that song appear as the third song of the evening. Imagine how shocked I am that at age 63 I have to sing it as the third song of the evening! Actually, I knew it was coming…but I forgot. At my age it happens. Did I pee before I came out here? I’m senile.” This was only one of the many times Mr. Loaf had the crowd smiling and laughing.

Meat took a moment to introduce his latest solo album, Hang Cool Teddy Bear, which is a concept album about a wounded soldier who, nearing death, has his life flash before his eyes. The catch is that his life flashes forward instead of backwards, leaving the larger than life front man to mutter, “I don’t know where I come up with this shit.” With that, the band played three songs from the new album including the intense 'Peace On Earth', the melodramatic 'Living On the Outside' and the bouncy hit single 'Los Angeloser'.

After the trio of new songs, Meat Loaf addressed the crowd, asking how many people had the new album. A decent amount of people cheered leaving the showman to ask, “That’s great but what the fuck is wrong with the rest of you people? Now I have to sound like a bar band and tell you that it is available at the merchandise booth.”
