todd just walked out on the stage and began:
set list:
LCM (good start)
Cliche' (real good version-one of best ive heard))
--the band then came out-t bone, drummer (who looked like willie circa
80). and keyboard player (later the sax player and gtr dude came out)
next was a strident version of)
hit me like a train (great tight sound)....then came the shocker:)
im looking at you but im talking to myself (this has been missing for
almost 20 yrs now from the set)..some voc flubs but altogther nice-good
background singers..)
buffalo grass (strange choice-came off ok..but no"cat claw vocs during
the last verse))
next was the bway version of parallel lines (t bone may have played on
the version on night music w/sanborn in the 80s)-the vocals were
nice-very nice choice)
hello its me was the 3/4 version featured on nh tour and the most recent
awdar 2..crowd went nuts-the crowd really ate up all opps all night long
to participate, so they loved this)
then came love is the answer-tr said something like-i cant leave you on
such a sappy note and tore into rock love..some tech probs w/ gtr but
all in all todd palyed and sang well and i think he was challenged by
the great vocs of the h and o crew-personally-although H and O kept the
crowd on their feet, i couldnt stand the way that every single song
would-break down and go on forever..i know todds done it too (its a
philly thing) but it wore on me after awhile..also, not to offend anyone
but im not ever going to think that "i cant go for that" or "maneater"
are good songs.BUT.....H and O sounded good, crowd on their feet for the
whole of H and Os set- but i left as soon as "maneater"
started...decided to get a head start home...hey-go see this-todd played
and sang as good as ive seen him in years..he was especially confident
on gtr ..go see it!.........mr rogers (in a black buccos hat)
