Hello It's Me "Todd was in very good voice and was able to hit the high note in Love of the Common Man. There was a nice mix between the old standards and songs from the mid-nineties." "I found myself giggling uncontrollably at Flaw. What a fabulous song that is! And what a shame it can never be played on a commercial radio station. The chord that sets up the crucial lyric is just devastating, and the guys hammered home the point." "And yet I felt this show was a half-step below the similar show at the Birchmere two years ago. Tonight's playlist was not identical but maybe two-thirds the same; I could have used a little less repetition, though the crowd certainly ate it up." "The gig clocked in at a bit over two hours with a two-song encore and no intermission -- we certainly got our money's worth. And there was no shortage of energy by any of them."
The band:
The venue (taken from the KasimInfo.com Blog that day):
The concert starts tonight at 7.30pm and tickets cost $54.75. The Birchmere is General Admission with all seating done on a first come, first served basis. To keep the process orderly, apparently they use Line Numbers which are picked up at the box office upon arrival. The venue is all seated with tables. At 5.00pm the Box Office opens and they start handing out Line Numbers to customers as they arrive the Box Office. At 6.00pm, when the venue doors open, they begin seating by Line Number (i.e. the first person in at 5.00pm will be the first person allowed into the venue).

Kasim last played here on Tuesday 28th June 2011 on the 'Classic' Todd Rundgren Tour and prior to that on Tuesday 13th April 2010, 17th December 2008 on Todd Rundgren's Arena Tour and on 16th December 2007 again with Todd Rundgren.
On Saturday evening they played a gig in Ridgefield, CT which is 289 miles so will have taken about five hours to drive or possibly Kasim had a night at home!
