My Dad is a mega huge obsessed Todd fan. I've sat next to him at a show while he cried during "Compassion". Beyond glad my Pops turned me on to him, what a talent!
I remember about 15 yrs ago, my Dad called me at work and asked if I could ask my boss if I could cut out of work early. He said he bought me a plane ticket and I had 2 hrs to get to the airport. He was already at the hotel and would call me a cab as soon as I landed. My boss at the time was really great and she thought my Dad was awesome, so she let me go. I love surprises so I didn't ask him why. He had seen Todd the night before and had such an incredible time, he followed them on tour and wanted me to come to the next show. Ended up getting drunk with my Dad, saw Todd play "The Fool" SG, rode back to the hotel on the "Super Fan Bus", and hung with the band at the hotel bar after the show. Todd is great
