This
web site started out to be the virtual window into
my collection of Todd Rundgren information, and a source for navigating
related material on-line, in print, or on disc. But it turned
into a launch pad for various projects over the years. It is an
endeavor to which I contribute as much time as I can, but is really
about the fans that make the projects go.
Some day, I plan to
post some of the things here I consider unique, rare, or most-interesting.
In certain instances, my aim is to provide corollary information
that adds to the depth of understanding of who TR is and what
his music and message means (at least to me). My main goal is
to organize everything and present it in a visually appealing
fashion helping people sort out what is myth and what is reality
regarding Todd.
I do this because I
am compelled to. Often I think someone should do it, no one else
does it quite the way I would, and I can do it. So why not? My
credentials and more history on other projects I have participated
in are below. Read on if inspired. My aim is to prove I am a dedicated
fan doing my best to promote Todd's message. My hope is that this
would encourage like minded people to join in the tribute.

A
DREAM GOES ON FOREVER: Generous
portions of TODData were used by permission for Chapter One, and
a review of NAZZ III written by request for Billy James' biography
of Todd. I am currently laying out the second volume.
UTOPIA REDUX:
Two shirt designs selected from an open solicitation
for submissions supporting Utopia's brief reunion in 1992. One
was also featured on the back of the CD.
TODData: A
six part 1990 print series biography of Todd Rundgren by his mother,
Ruth, as told to me. Exclusive scrapbook photos and background
information, plus the unique perspective of Todd’s early
career comprise key elements of this rare, out-of-print fanzine.
UTOPIA TIMES:
Originally the four-times-yearly newsletter for Todd
fans sparked by personal communications with his mother, Ruth.
Hand selected articles and artwork were assembled and photocopied.
Subscriber base reached 250 before management changes. I did covers.
