I have been fortunate to have seen Todd on three occasions – supporting Led Zeppelin at Knebworth in 1979, on his solo tour in 1982 and tonight. Like his albums, no two experiences were the same. Like other reviewers, I had the benefit of knowing what was coming through previous reviews and it didn’t lessen the impact of the gig one little bit. Todd may be older and a little heavier, but he can still sing like there is no tomorrow (during Liar I thought he might just pass away, such was the effort he put into it!). I was worried pre-gig by some of the poor reviews from the London concert, but I can only assume those making the negative comments haven’t kept up with Todd throughout his career – this was more of a TR-i show than a Todd Rundgren show. He continues to move forward. Lets hope it isn’t so long before the next CD and tour – he’s been away too long.
