If I Listen to the Radio, I'll Hear About the Latest Things
Yer buddy great Todd Rundgren was in town (LA) this weekend performing at the Hollywood Bowl as a part of the big Beatles Celebration w/ The Hollywood Bowl Orchestra. Being the BIG Beatles fan that he is, the "Runt" was kind enough to stop by and visit Breakfast w/ the Beatles (95.5 KLOS-FM) during Sunday's show ... we talking in depth about Badfingers's Straight Up, John Lennon, George Martin and Deface The Music...he was the nazz.
To hear the clips from the show go to www.breakfastwiththebeatles.com - after Tuesday the 13th.
Cheers,
Chris Carter

On November 15, 2008 was under the Tromp Festival in Eindhoven a particular place of Todd Rundgren concert with the American String Quartet Ethel.
Rundgren is an anything: gifted songwriter, producer, performer and an innovator and pioneer in the history of the (pop) music. Still it refreshes itself. For the concert in Eindhoven, he avoided the beaten paths of the greatest vocal hits and took the necessary risk, thereby developing an exciting evening.
Prior to the deployment of integrated Rundgren concert a conversation between Todd Rundgren and Co de Kloet.
The program:
Todd Rundgren, with the Ethel String Quartet (Dufallo Cornelius and Mary Rowell - violin, Ralph Farris - viola, Dorothy Lawson - cello) and percussionist Colin Currie.
