Todd Rundgren at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 9-07-09

[JeffWeavil]

KILLER!

THANKS so much for sharing

[mistymountainhopful]

Todd is awesome. Probably my singlemost favorite musician. His music has always been special (cept the hip hop records, couldn't get into those). He's an amazing man, surely a Wizard, a True Star. Who cares what the R&R Hall of Fame does or says? They're lame anyway. They can have Madonna and Michael Jackson, etc... when it comes to true talent they miss the forest from the trees.

Chook-a-dee-chook-chook-chook-­a-dookee-doo. That's what this song should be called!

[praisetodd]

Hi Swamprat! I wish I had that piece of music to put behind this video! Sounds really cool and just the thing for it! Seems some people like the music and some don't. Oh well. Thanks for viewing!!!

[SFCBenny57]

I'm not sure how to feel about this since the so-called R&R HOF has snubbed Todd as far as an official induction is concerned for so damn long. Considering all of his musical accomplishments and his large and devoted fan base it clearly is a travesty. However, if his having an exhibit there helps with getting him inducted then I guess it was a good thing.

[praisetodd]

That's a great story, MHManiac! Thanks for sharing that! Yes, I think you are right...Also, I think he connected with his fans in so many ways over the years, and he will always stop and let a fan take a photo with him and so on, if there's any way he possibly can. Thanks for taking the time to comment!

[praisetodd]

I'm afraid to ask what "toss-offs" means; doesn't sound very flattering, though.

[Smackdaddy9]

What a pack of toss-offs

[javaxsqft]

Until you get to 2:55 and the music stops.

[praisetodd]

Well thank you! I had a hard time finding any of the youtube music to choose from. They have plenty, but none seemed right. This was the only one dynamic enough. But unfortunately, it wasn't long enough. :/ Thanks for your comments!

[64SWAMPRAT]

@praisetodd I have a perfect recording for this video. it was from a video my daughter shot of Todd Rundgren jamming at the rock hall in Cleveland. a song VERY, VERY few people has ever heard. " the crow " a tune written by Mark Hart and a band called the crop with Todd Rundgren playing lead guitar and cawing like a crow with the band.

[javaxsqft]

This is fuckin awesome. These older groupies with there teenage kids in tow. The guy getting four pictures taken. The background music. ITS GREAT!!!

[animal90sFreak5]

So this one step closer for The Wizard actually getting in sometime soon,very intresting,The Hall should consider him highly for an inductee for his music and how much he has actually contributed to it and the amount of albums he has produced,they should get him in really soon,especially if they have this exhibt.Don't you folks/Rundgren fans agree?

[catgirl6717]

WOW ok,..0.31 Far right is my sis pushing my bro in his wheelchair. True die hard fans. Peace and Love!! Sus

[praisetodd]

Hi catgirl! I'm pretty sure we talked to your sister and brother after we left the ticket counter when we first arrived! Very nice folks! Todd fans are the best! Thanks for posting your nice comment!

[catgirl6717]

Cool beans! I keep hearing there will be a vid. In it my bro says he'd give his leg to see Todd and then holds his prosthetic up ;). Whoever taped it said it would be on some DVD compilation about Toddstock. Any news?? peace - Sus

[praisetodd]

Well, at Akron AWATS preconcert party we were shown a lengthy clip of that DVD by the two guys making it. It wasn't ready to be released yet, but "in the making" still. Haven't heard anymore news of it since then. Sorry.

[animal90sFreak5]

@catgirl6717 Hey I don't want to work,I just wanna bang on the drum all day!!

[catgirl6717]

You got it! ;)

[SuddenSparkles]

His hair has a bit of that old fashioned candy striped look to it, sort of like Neapolitano for the Rainbow Colanation.

[swing8th]

man i love todd's music. looks like he's a pretty cool dude too.

[jeffmight2u]

That wasn't Todd Rungdgren music? I'm pretty sure that was his song "Cheeseburger in Paradise" wasn't it?

[SuddenSparkles]

How about a Philly Steak Sandwich in Boston with caramelized onions, and a small side of arugula por favor. What a dynamite song that is, I'd say full-on rock without any hint of demonic in it.

[praisetodd]

Thank you, Cherry! xD

[chelababy1]

We forgive you praisetodd...thanks for posting it up so we can enjoy...so everyone praise praisetodd for posting this video....I sent it out to all my TODD friends, as well as all my friends that do not GET IT.....so they can see that Todd is Rising To This Occasion !!!!

Rock Love,

CHERRY

[nonnikat]

[praisetodd]

Thanks! ;D

[MsToddisgod]

Let's watch this to some Todd Rundgren music., OK ???

[praisetodd]

Look above at the reply I made to remlap, Ms. Toddisgod. I don't know how to do that yet. I just learned Audioswap, OK??? (LOL!) Hang in there; one of these days I will take the time to learn how to put in my own music...But for now, I didn't want all the background talking so I used Youtube's Audioswap, and you have to use their library of music. Sorry again! Thanks for viewing anyway!

[MsToddisgod]

Its a great video and I appreciate the effort to get it up here ! So will look forward to the day the music gets updated, if you know what I mean, and I think you do ;) Thanks !

[64SWAMPRAT]

@MsToddisgod yes...lets.

[remlap48]

What's that f**king music. Why not play some TODD!!!!! Sorry, I'm probably jealous cause I wasn't there.

[praisetodd]

Sorry remlap,

I'm new to posting videos. I wanted to block out all the background talking which had nothing to do with anything so I used youtube's "audioswap". I haven't learned how to dub in my own music. On audioswap, you use music from Youtube's library.

[KeiuroFan]

Actually, if you had used Todd's music there's a good chance WMG would mute your video, so it's wise to use YouTube's library. Many thanks for posting this for those that couldn't be there, it's fun seeing some of my friends on your video. *Peace*! XD

[badmuddy]

speaking of (the rrhof), howzabowdit? madonna gets in before todd??? he's not in, is he?

[chelababy1]

Again DOUG... Thanks A Zillion Times Over For Making All This Happen in the U.S. for US & TODD... good seeing you if only for a brief time in Stamford.... What a Show !!!... There Are NO WORDS !! I sent TONY R. A Big HELLO for YOU.....CHERRY R.

[mintz64]

Bamma, Kro, Lunny and DK getting close with Todd. Only took DK 8 years. Sweet.

[RundgrenRadio]

Here name was Jean (not sure on spelling). Cool vid!

[praisetodd]

Thanks, Doug! I love the worried look on your face and how you checked your watch! Don't know how you stand the stress you must have been under that weekend, but your RR fans think of you as a hero!!!

[1mathfan]

This is so sweet! He is so great to his fans -- this looks like it took a ton of time, not to mention the AWATS concerts ... there is no one like him.

[praisetodd]

Mathfan,

You are so right...I don't believe he would have stopped until the last fan came through the line. He says his fans are the reason he has continued to tour all these years. (Not a direct quote, but something similar)

[ithastobe]

TODD deserves to be inducted! Hey.. I can see myself in line and getting my autograph. Thanks for posting this OMG again! It was soo cool. The lady in white at 3:54 came from England for the show. I think her name was Donna.

[praisetodd]

Yes, Ithastobe...we took her to the airport. She is still on "Toddcloud 9"!

[biljacburnside]
