TR @ NORTHERN LIGHTS

SUFFICIENT TIME HAS PASSED TO DIGEST THE SHOW,READ THE REVIEWS,SYNTHESIZE SOME THOUGHTS AND COMMENTS..FIRST OF ALL,HATS OFF TO JAY JOHN AND BRO JOE FOR PUTTING THINGS BACK IN PERSPECTIVE FOR THE" DIE HARDS".SOME NICE THOUGHTS BY THESE GUYS TO REMIND US HOW PRIVILEDGED WE ARE TO BE IN ON THIS WHOLE TODD THING.ITS KIND OF A HARD THING TO UNDERSTAND UNLESS YOU ARE PART OF IT.BUT IF YOU ARE THEN YOU DONT CARE,REALLY,THAT HE PLAYS 'LOVE OF THE COMMON MAN' EVERY SHOW....YOU DONT MIND HIM MESSING UP IN THE MIDDLE OF'VIKING SONG'....YOU COULD CARE LESS PIANO CHORDS MISS THE MARK AT TIMES.ITS ALL PART OF A PACKAGE DEAL THAT THE TRUE FANS BOUGHT INTO LONG AGO AND WE ARE IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL.HARSH CRITICISM OF HIS ARTISTRY SEEMS UNIMAGINABLE TO US BECAUSE HE'S GIVEN US TOO MUCH TO THINK AND FEEL ABOUT THAT IS RIGHT AND GOOD. PERHAPS, ONE DAY,WHEN TODD DOES STOP TOURING OR APPEARING,CERTAIN ONES MIGHT WISH THEY COULD BE BACK AT NORTHERN LIGHT OR THE KESWICK THEATRE OR B.B. KINGS....TO SING ALONG TO FAMILIAR SONGS....LAUGH AT BLOWN NOTES.....GET THE POINT!!! SINCERELY HOPING SOME DAY YOU DO. ANYWAY,A RESPECTFUL NOTE OF THANKS TO THE 'CRITICS' FOR INSPIRING MY LITANY OF SENTIMENTS.....BOTTOM LINE...GREAT SHOW!!! THANKS TODD......
