God bless him. It's quite a life that he's led:

"He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with worldwide sales of more than 80 million records. He has also appeared in over 50 movies and television shows, sometimes as himself or as characters resembling his stage persona. His most notable roles include Eddie in the The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), Robert "Bob" Paulson in David Fincher's Fight Club (1999) and "The Lizzard" in The 51st State (2002). He has also appeared in several television shows such as Monk, Glee, South Park, House, M.D. and Tales from the Crypt as a guest actor."

Canada - Some place north of Buffalo where they say “eh?” every third word, or speak French, and watch hockey every day as they’re washing down donuts and poutine with beer.

Pretty much how I figure it's like in the frozen North. Plus they just elected a no good commie. One good thing I can say is they are repulsed by soccer.

To which I’m sure he’d respond “Just call me Meat.”

I believe he also fell off a stage several years ago and broke his leg.

From what I’ve read about him, he’s a talented guy and a hard worker. At 68, maybe he needs to take it easy.

...

Yep. Most successful entertainers are hard workers. My guess is he had the flu and went on with the show anyway.

Many here may never have see him sing in “Rocky Horror” considering the stars and subject matter.

While Mr. Loaf was motionless on the ground, I hope no one pinched him.

Joke! Relax, all y’all, it was just joke.

Speedy recovery to Meatloaf!

I remember one of my sons going to see Rocky Horror at a midnight show in some Boston movie theater.

I thought he was nuts.

I didn’t know that Mealoaf was in it.
