Live rock concert experience with Lee Brady on vocals and a full band recreating Meat Loaf's 'Bat Out of Hell' shows for its 50th anniversary.
Heaven Can Wait comes to the Royal Hippodrome Theatre on Saturday 30 January, a concert celebrating the 50th anniversary of Bat Out of Hell. The album first hit the world stage in 1977 and is credited with redefining rock theatre, and this show marks half a century since it arrived.
It's not billed as a tribute band, but as a full-scale rock concert experience. The set puts Lee Brady on vocals, backed by a full live band of world-class musicians and epic production, with the aim of recreating the magic, drama and intensity of Meat Loaf's legendary live performances. The songs they'll be working through are the ones that built the reputation: Bat Out of Hell, Paradise by the Dashboard Light, I'd Do Anything for Love and Heaven Can Wait.
If you're familiar with the records, you know the scale they're talking about. These are the big, theatrical songs that Meat Loaf became known for, and the production is built around that same sense of drama. With a full band on stage, the focus is on the live sound rather than a small ensemble, and Brady takes the lead on the vocals.
