Whats on your turntable tonight?

Saw Todd at Roseland Ballroom in NYC in the 90s. It was a round stage with a variety of percussion instruments attached to the bottom going all the way around

Spencer, I fist saw Todd around 1974/5, can’t remember exactly, but the concert was highly connected to his Wizard release, but also Todd. For the time, it was quite the experience blending music and Todd’s own take on theater, and even acrobatics.

Next time was the mid-90’s, IIRC, with Warren Zevon. That was a great show combo. And the last in the large 90’s/early 00’s with Joe Jackson (I have a hard time remembering dates, always have). That was primarily a two man solo show, Todd had basically moved in that direction at the time, and that was also a great show….but….I did miss him with a larger band nonetheless.

I love Something / Anything?, it's one of my favorite records.  I saw Utopia in Portland at Revolution Hall (an old high school converted to a concert venue) not too long before the pandemic started.  That was a lot of fun.

Happenstance? Todd Rundgren produced XTC’s Skylarking which I played last night…apparently it was an ‘ahem’ interesting experience for both he and the band:

@whatsaftumch Yeah, I saw an XTC documentary and Andy was pretty funny in his disdain for Todd. No love there!
