Is Steve Steinman related to Jim Steinman?

I see this question a lot. The answer is no, he is not.

In 1993, a Yorkshireman named Steve Murray was on the TV talent show "Stars In Their Eyes" as Meat Loaf. Later, to help promote his tribute act, Steve changed his stage name to Steve Steinman. Under companies house, his business "Steve Steinman Productions" names Steven Murray as the sole officer.

He has never worked with, or had any association with, Jim Steinman.

Steve has in fact said a few unkind things about Jim Steinman's Bat Out Of Hell in promotion of his own work.

Neverland Chronicles, June 2100 edition

Some fan material I wrote, in response to the Obsidian Times newspaper which is given away free at performances of Jim Steinman's Bat Out Of Hell The Musical. I think mostly I wrote it because I felt that the Obsidian Times contained information which didn't seem true to me (as a fan of the show) and wasn't funny enough, or contain enough references for fans.

I picture this incarnation of the Neverland Chronicles to be left-leaning, vaguely tolerant but distrusting of Falco, an underground publication that's at times gossip rag, other times vaguely high-brow, and never really taken seriously enough to get into real trouble.
