I know this is way off topic, but I just have to brag about how good the Todd show was in Kansas City on June 2, 2000. It was AWESOME! Todd totally ROCKED! Every concert portrays a different side to Todd and this time he was Todd the guitar superhero. It was the power trio with just Todd, Kasum, and Trey on drums. Todd wailed and axed and put on a great show. I especially enjoyed "Black and White", "One World", "Hammer In My Heart", "Love In Action", "Buffalo Grass" and the specially done "Bang On a Drum All Day" solo on the ukulele (he called it an old Hawaiian war chant). My good friends and long time Todd fans, Wayne and Jan, had "after show passes" because they were contest runners up. They got to talk to Todd and got their Todd 'n' me pic, plus they both got their passes autographed, those lucky dogs!

Excellent! I didn't know that Todd still toured. What was the venue? Not that I would recognize anything you named. Just wondered if he was filling arenas or if it was a small concert hall.

Todd usually plays little places nowadays. I saw him at a 1000 person capacity club in KC. Although he doesn't draw huge crowds anymore, the ones that do go see him are generally long-time, rabid, hard-core fans. Standard, if you are not joking, I'm goin' hold you down and tickle you until you promise to listen to some of his music...LOL. The "Todd Rundgren Connection" page is down right now, but if you search on that later, it lists the concert calendar for this Todd power trio 2000 tour and various reviews and pics of the previous shows. The above pic that I took and another one of my pics (a close up of Todd) are on that website too. Warning: this tour is high energy rock 'n' roll with blazing guitar riffs! Many remember Todd has lots of electronic "spacey" songs and lots of mellow ballads, but you will only hear a couple mellow tunes this time around. I was right up front, about three rows back from center stage and my left ear is still ringing, even four days later, but I'm getting old.
