I wanted to go see him on the 29th in Edmonton, but couldn't due to work.
Him, Tony Levin and Jerry Marrotta in the same place? I would definately go just to hear these three legends jam out!

I've seen him several times. He's usually pretty good.

I did end up going.Bought a $60 ticket front row balcony,for $30.Good start.
It was a pretty good show.Heavyer than I thought it would be.
Only knew 3 of the songs played.Todd had a great sense of humour too.
Not a bad evening.Glad I went.

Cool! Glad you enjoyed it. Todd doesn't always do all his obvious hits(not that he's had that many) and sometimes will drastically change around the arrangements when he does. I liked him with Utopia too even though I didn't always like each & every tack on the albums.
Guess he's just marking time till the New Cars resume their tour this fall.

What happened to The New Cars??
I purchased their live CD and thought they sounded GREAT!!
Todd does an excellent job with their music.
Why did they pull the plug on their tour???

Yes,Utopia could be hit & miss.But they had some great stuff, no doubt about it.

Elliot Easton had his collar bone broken in a tour bus accident. Now Kasim Sultan (bass) is jumping ship to tour with Meat Loaf for his new Bat III: The Monster Is Loose tour.

Yes, the keyboard player (Greg Hawkes?) broke his shoulder. The bass player (Kasim Sulton?) just announced that he won't be on the New Cars next tour because he will be touring with Meatloaf.
