Todd Rundgren
Excellent show last night. Hit most of his career.
Started with Real Man from Initiation. Ended with A Dream Goes Forever
Some people call me Maurice SPLAT Pro lifetime, ADK 6 core 3.6Ghz with 32 GB RAM, SSD 1TB system drive, 3 3TB regular drives for samples, recordings and misc. Behringer X Touch, UAD Apollo Quad. 2 UAD2 Quads PCI (i think - inside the box whatever that is), Console 1. More guitars (40??) and synths (hard and soft) than talent. Zendrum!!!

I've been fortunate enough to see him a couple times and was blown away. Best concert was a double bill with Todd and The TUbes. Simply amazing.

I've never heard of him doing a bad show.

Hi, Wizard side of the album non stop very loud ... After that ... the Eyecon! Saw him a couple of years ago here in Portland, and he played the electric guitar the whole time and his friend played guitar doing the keyboard parts for the most part ... it was fine, but really ... tired, for my tastes. I don't think he is aging well and the music getting better, and I think he needs to go back and get stoned with M. Frogg and say 4 letter words through those synth/vocoders again so he can have a bit more fun!

I've liked everything I've heard from him, but don't have any of his albums.
As long as he's been around, as big an influence he has been, could he still fit into the 'should have been bigger' thread?

Hi,
You guys do know that Todd was one of the first to help develop the computer software for music, and his name (at the time) was associated with Cakewalk -- at least through a friend we had here named Mike that did a lot of coding and work for Todd on that program ... we're talking at least as far back as 1992.
Not sure Todd even acknowledges that ... and Cakewalk certainly doesn't! Fame is a **** ... when you don't want to share the credit!
