I was having a good tidy up of my Meat Loaf collection, so in reverse order, here's the "top 5 weird shit in my Meat Load desk." with short explainations.
Please remember that the more silly, cheesy, and generally bad taste, the more it appeals to me
5. Meat Loaf toy racing car.
For the album Couldn't Have Said It Better, Meat sponsored his own "funny car" (a type of drag car in the states).The car was painted with album logos on it, and Meat went to watch it every time it raced.A limited edition of scale replicas was made.One of which lives in my Meat Loaf desk.(I also have the limited edition shirt he hade made for himself and the pit crew
).
4. Empty water bottle used by Meat at a concert and tossed into the crowd.
Meat threw it, I picked it up and took it home as a souverir.
Bit stalkerish and freaky? May well be.
3. Meat Loaf sunglasses.
They have Meat written on a mesh screen on one lense, Loaf written on the other.
One word - ebay.
2. Meat Loaf sweat bands.
No, i've never worn them to the gym and worked out to Bat Out Of Hell.
That would just be wrong.
It would decrease the value.
1. Meat Loaf condom.
Don't worry, that's not a condom worn by Meat Loaf
Made as a piece of merchandise, it's a condom in a card packet with Meat Loaf printed on the front, and sealed in shrink wrap.
It's 18 years old.
I always thought it would be a great chat up line to go up to a young lady at a bar, flash the condom, give a cheesy smile, and say "this thing is 18 years old, don't you think it's time it saw a little action?"
No, perhaps not
A friend of mine has a Bat Out Of Hell II condom.
I feel jealous of that.
It's all so so wrong lol.
