I really thought he died some time ago. Glad he didn’t.
Most of us can’t do at 68 what we used to do at 28.

It was at his Edmonton show.

Or he’ll be gone with the morning light.
He’s a native Texan performing in Canada? Kind of an inverse Ted Cruz, eh?

I sure hope he will be OK. Get well, Meat Loaf!
I hope so too. He has/had a phenomenal voice.
too easy...
