So one of my heroes, Todd Rundgren, did A Wizard, A True Star
last year as a limited run of about 9-10 shows.

Just learned tonight that this coming fall, he's gonna do the whole of the "Todd" Album. Opening set: The entirety of "Healing."

What an undertaking, eh, for just a handful of shows? folks familiar w/ those records will realize how much music that is to rehearse. And none of it has been in set rotation for 20-25 yrs or so.

This makes me really happy.

1. OH MY GOD.
The recordings I've heard of the AWATS shows were great. Very disappointed he didn't bring it to Philly.

Where did you see this, on trconnection?

2. Yes. Announced last night. And all over TRC today.
You may be in luck. All 6 dates are supposed to stay away from the two coasts and be bigger cities (I think that's what I heard.)

Nice to see you again!

6. Don't think these records are being played right now.
I'm thinking he'll be doing a blues oriented set in support of his upcoming Robert Johnson covers ep.
