This day in history: American singer and actor Meat Loaf (Michael Lee Aday) died on this day in 2022 at the age of 74. He is one of the best selling music artists in history. His Bat Out of Hell trilogy—Bat Out of Hell (1977), Bat Out of Hell II: Back into Hell (1993), and Bat Out of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose (2006)—has sold more than 100 million records worldwide. The first album stayed on the charts for over nine years, as of 2016 still sold an estimated 200,000 copies annually, and is on the list of bestselling albums.
Also on this day in history: Singer Ozzy Osbourn bit the head off a bat while performing at the Veterans Memorial Auditorium in Des Moines, Iowa on this day in 1982. A fan threw the bat on stage and Ozzy, thinking that it wasn't real, bit its head off. He had to get rabies shots after this.
