ONLINE: Todd Rundgren
Todd Rundgren
On his last trip to Madison in 2018, songwriter Todd Rundgren brought An Unpredictable Evening of surprise covers and a spontaneous playlist; in 2021, it s the Clearly Human tour, with sets including all of the
Nearly Human album. If you are now asking yourself Tour? .you read that right. Rundgren and a 10-piece band are staying in a quarantine pod in Chicago, and playing individual shows for 25 markets this winter. He s experimented with multimedia and interactivity since the 70s so it s not surprising to see him on the road virtually, or that the livestream add-ons include innovations such as a multi-camera option.

“Buffalo, you’ve been so kind to us,” Todd Rundgren said toward the end of his tour-opening show Sunday night. He was actually performing in Chicago, as most fans watching the pay-per-view livestream knew, but this was not a senior/Spinal Tap “Hello Cleveland!” moment. The current Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominee’s entire 25-date “tour” will be broadcast from the same Illinois stage, but geo-targeted to different regional markets, complete with visual cues saluting the would-be host towns and, yes, multiple winking shout-outs to the virtually targeted city du jour.
