Here are the beats that we have so far...
Post-karaoke night comes to the bar. They're all dressed as their favorite rock stars...including ZZ Top (flipping their guitars).
Meat Loaf is after Cher. He thinks he just found the love of his life...
But he can't win her over. His approach isn't working.
Cher goes over to be with "glam" Bowie or Buddy Holly or Elvis.
The guy thought he'd be more confident being Meat Loaf.
Goodman tells him to drop the act.
He drops the act...and wins Cher...
...who drops the act...and reveals that she's a guy.
Let's really nail this story. Have fun with it, but make sure it's real. Get into the emotion and the depth of story and character.

For some reason, the Meatloaf character reminds me of a Charlie, a character from a current TV series, It's always sunny in philadelphia. http://www.hulu.com/watch/101296/its-always-sunny-in-philadelphia-the-waitress-is-getting-married
ReplyDeletesome ideas for ML getting denied:
- ML, in desperation, stands up on the bar and tries to perform a magic trick that fails due to inebriation and lack of skill.
- ML tries to repeatedly but into a conversation of one-upping each other. He finally chimes in with something outlandish and awkward like, "I almost banged my sister one time because I was so drunk".
-professes his love for Cher in pig latin
Thought of a last line ML says that could change her mind. "Just wanted to let you know that I'm not ML. But you know what - you're not Cher. (a beat)If you're interested, I'll be over at the end of the bar trying to drink away my shame."
