According to Todd Rundgren, the answer, based on the free concert he played in downtown Detroit last night, is a resounding no. And my hat's off to him for that decision. My wife and sister-in-law who attended with me were beside themselves. "No Hello It's Me!?!...aargh!!" Maybe that quote isn't quite accurate but they both said something along those lines. Todd only reached back into that very deep catalog of his a few times. He did play I Saw the Light and even went back to his Nazz days for a kick-ass rendition of Open My Eyes. But most of the night was taken up by tunes from his latest CD Arena. For myself, I was delighted by this approach and respected his decision to play new material over a host of tired relics (great as they are) that he's had his fill of I'm sure. His band was excellent (what a joy to see the great Prairie Prince again on the drums) and I was amazed at the range and power of Todd's voice. The guy can wail. read more...
Heres an article I never thought I'd ever see in my lifetime.... I'm not sure but i think it's kinda patronizing but at the same time liberating that indeed 'what comes round goes round'... I'm also slightly disturbed that it mentions 'Did you know, fireworks are known and loved all over the world' surely they do not really believe that Americians think that fireworks are only used in the US and indeed the rest of the world does not know what they are !!!
