OHIO FAN'S GIVEN THE ROYAL BRUSH OFF IN DAYTON.

First let me tell you about the show! After
reading all the reviews of the previous shows I knew
much what to expect, but I have to say I was
pleasently surprised at how great this show is!! The
Todd stuff in the first set left a little to be
desired, perhaps because he still wont take himself
seriously and be proud of having hits that made it to
mainstream radio!! It's certainly not my favorite
material by him, BUT!!! Ann Wilson outshone them all,
as earlier reported, I feel so happy to see her out
touring again! The rest of the performers came off as
the well seasoned musician, performers that they are,
and all did a wonderful job! Todd carried much of the
vocal weight second set, and did a great job of it.
The whole tribute idea sat well with the crowd and I,
and we all rose to the occasion! Now, about the "BRUSH
OFF" Ohio has to have one of the biggest Todd Rundgren
following around, and it was very apparent in the
crowds reaction! Lots of TODDDDD being screamed out
from all directions, yet for the 20+ fans that
bothered to wait 1 1/2 hours out back for a glimpse
and maybe an autograph we did get the "ROYAL BRUSH
OFF." We were all yelling out Todd's name, and as each
of the other celebs came out, Alan Parsons, Ann
Wilson, we payed our respects to them but then asked
about Todd, we were finally told he would be out in 10
mins, and he came out promptly and got straight into
the van and off he went! We were totally dissed!!
Shame on him!! Anyway, the show itself is great, do
yourself a favor and don't miss it!!!
