A surprise concert...Todd Rundgren
Having lived 51 years, and played music most of that time, I'm not exactly sure why I was surprised when a buddy called to say he had an extra ticket to see Todd Rundgren at the Bearsville theater. It's practically a full house here. Since I did a coupe of gigs with Jesse Gress (Todd's guitarist) I was invited backstage. I'm now sitting front row balcony and the show's about to start. Other than my friend (also friends with the band), I don't actually know anyone here. But that's ok. It's wicked cool to be here anyway. I know the show's gonna kick arse. :)

Here's a couple more pix from during the show, which was just super fun. The sound wasn't great - the Bearsville sound system just doesn't sound that good - and the band was tired (from the TR "music survivor's camp" of the previous week) but the VIBE was super high - all about peace & love, everyone smiling...
Some of the tunes they played:
Real man
Hello It's Me
Dream Goes On Forever
(Blues)
Ooh Baby Baby
I Saw The Light
..and tons of others, most of which I didn't recognize. But it certainly was a great scene for sure. :)
