Motorcity Casino Hotel Proudly Welcomes Meat Loaf Sound Board November 3, 2015 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Tracey Shavers or Jacci Woods 313.309.4610 [email protected] or [email protected] MotorCity Casino Hotel Proudly Welcomes Meat Loaf Sound Board November 3, 2015 (Detroit – July 15, 2015) MotorCity Casino Hotel is proud to welcome Meat Loaf to Sound Board on Tuesday, November 3, 2015 at 7:30 p.m. For the past 40 years, Meat Loaf has been a towering monument on the musical landscape. His legendary 1977 album Bat Out of Hell transformed this former stage actor into one of the great American rock 'n' roll icons. That record, with its staggering operatic sound and impassioned vocals, has sold more than 44 million albums worldwide and remains one of the best-selling albums in the world to date. However, there’s a lot more to Meat Loaf than Bat Out of Hell. Three multi-platinum albums followed the sophomore album, including 1993’s Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell (which sold 5 million units in the U.S. and 15 million worldwide), producing the Grammy-winning hit single, “I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That),” a No.1 single in 28 countries. The album, Welcome to the Neighborhood went double-platinum in 1995, while 2003’s Couldn’t Have Said It Better went platinum in 2003 and 2006’s Bat Out Of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose, the third in the best-selling trilogy, earned platinum status in 2006. A new album, Braver Than We Are, has been in the works for some time, and was officially announced in 2014 with the news of Loaf signing with 429 Records. The upcoming album will reunite Meat Loaf with Bat Out of Hell collaborator Jim Steinman and is on target for a Fall 2015 release. To read more on Meat Loaf, please visit http://meatloaf.net/.

  • Ars Pro Concreta
    A Proposal for Staging By Gibson DelGiudice Concreta Pro Ars Copyright © August 30, 2016 1 I. ARTIST STATEMENT Based on the 1961 Richard Attenborough-produced film and the novel by Mary Hayley Bell, Whistle Down the Wind is a thoughtful study of childhood innocence and simple faith contrasted with adult cynicism. In brief, the plot follows the fortunes of a mysterious man caught between the prejudice of adults and the innocence of the young. When this stranger takes refuge in a barn on a remote farm, its owner’s three children (Swallow, Brat, and Poor Baby, in the novel and the musical; they’re renamed in the film), who’ve recently lost their mother, mistakenly believe him to be the Second Coming of Christ, and they vow to protect the stranger from the world that waits outside – the townspeople who are determined to catch a fugitive hiding in their midst. The original was set in Lancashire, England, but for the musical, composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyricist Jim Steinman, together with Patricia Knop and Gale Edwards (co-book writers with Webber), reset the original story in America’s deep South (specifically, Louisiana) in 1959, causing the musical’s story-line to revolve in part around the time and place where the word “teenager” was invented. They also aged the oldest daughter, Swallow, up to 15, to be able to play with a “coming of age” angle where, as fantasy and reality collide, Swallow is torn between the two and begins to discover who she is and where she is going.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Songs by Jim Steinman
    Total Eclipse of the Charts SONGS BY JIM STEINMAN For over 35 years, legendary songwriter/producer Jim Steinman (aka Little Richard Wagner) has been rocking our world like no other... BAT OUT OF HELL The classic Meat Loaf album is currently in the all-time top 3 of global record sales at 43 million and counting, and the only album in the top 20 written entirely by ONE individual. In addition to the epic title track, other great songs include Two Out Of Three ‘Aint Bad, Paradise By The Dashboard Light and Heaven Can Wait. BAT OUT OF HELL 2 The album that reunited Jim & Meat after 16 years apart, this 11 song sequel was once again written entirely by ONE individual. The huge lead single I’d Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That) earned a Grammy for ‘best rock vocal’ and helped launch the album to global sales exceeding 14 million. Other mini-operas on the album include Rock & Roll Dreams Come Through, Life Is A Lemon & I Want My Money Back and the epic that ‘out epics’ everything else… …Objects In The Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are. TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART Taken from the Steinman produced album Faster Than The Speed Of Night, this 1983 worldwide smash for Bonnie Tyler hit # 1 in the US & UK, with global sales now exceeding 9 million. The power ballad to end all power ballads…’turnaround bright eyes’! IT’S ALL COMING BACK TO ME NOW Written whilst under the influence ofWuthering Heights, this US # 1 for Celine Dion earned Jim the BMI ‘song of the year’ award in 1998.

  • Rock 'N' Roll Dreams Come Through: R.I.P. Jim Steinman
    Rock ‘n’ Roll Dreams Come Through: R.I.P. Jim Steinman As a kid I hated music like Meat Loaf. I thought it was pompous and overdone, and I never liked having to hear that stupid “Paradise By The Dashboard Light” song at every wedding. It wasn’t till years later that I was reading a review of a Meat Loaf concert that it all clicked and I realized the genius of Meat Loaf and of his songwriter, Jim Steinman. If the record label told him couldn’t have seven choruses in a song, Steinman put nine choruses in. He curb-stomped the idea of the 3-minute, radio-friendly pop song. In that respect, Steinman was more punk than Fugazi. Everything he did had great lyrics and dramatic storylines, and went against what pop songs are supposed to be. In addition to working with the Loaf, Steinman wrote the hits “Total Eclipse of The Heart” for Bonnie Tyler and “It’s All Coming Back To Me Now” for Celine Dion. Sadly, Steinman recently passed away in Connecticut. But through his music, he will live forever. The Living Pins — Freaky Little Monster Children EP It’s normal for bands to take a little time after their debut and second release. In the case of Austin psych-rockers The Living Pins, that little time translated into a quarter of a century. Was it worth the wait? I just hope nobody was holding their breath. Freaky Little Monster Children is like a basket of shiny psych-rock nuggets. “Jaguar” is fueled by a guitar riff reminiscent of “Honkey Tonk Women” with a chorus that sounds like ’80s UK alternative rock on acid.

  • Bat out of Hell 2100 by Jim Steinman an Extended Treatment
    BAT OUT OF HELL 2100 BY JIM STEINMAN AN EXTENDED TREATMENT “BAT OUT OF HELL 2100” TITLE CARDS: THE YEAR 2100 SOMEWHERE IN WHAT USED TO BE THE ISLAND OF MANHATTAN BUT WHICH SOMEHOW CHANGED... into something else... PROLOGUE: (No music at all) FADE IN: INT: A MYSTERIOUS BEDROOM (What seems to have once been a perfect bedroom for a fairy tale princess. Whites and pinks and lavenders, flowing satins and silks. Huge windows, lush layered curtains and drapes. A massive canopied bed. But now there is a pervading sense of gradual decay and encroaching ruin. Shadows loom, dust whirls, and intricate webs insinuate themselves into the patterns of the walls and floor corners. Fabrics are torn. Wood is cracked. Glass is chipped. Things are lost. It doesn’t really seem to be a room where anybody lives-- it has the slightly unreal, frozen quality of a museum exhibit that has recently been left a bit too unattended... After moving through the room we come to a woman standing close to one of the largest open windows -- There are sepulchral clouds over the moon and in the slats of light that filter through it is impossible to see her very clearly. She stands totally still, as she brushes her long golden hair, some of which hangs out over the window ledge. She looks up and out and we do too, taking in the hazy outlines of a strange city skyline -- it seems both somewhat futurist and medieval, though so much is obscured by spirals of thick multi-colored smoke and plumes of what seems to be glittering black and gold ash.
