Todd Rundgren: ‘If You’re a Trump Supporter, Don’t Come to My Show’

70 Comments on Todd Rundgren: ‘If You’re a Trump Supporter, Don’t Come to My Show’

1. No problem you old drunk

2. A hack and always was. I actually thought he was dead…..musta just been demonstrating organs for the Hammond store at the mall.

3. “Hello it’s me.” And fuck you.

4. This happens a lot when an old act tries for a comeback. They figure if they make some outrageous political statement they’ll attract more attention to their show and maybe sell some tickets or comeback albums. This is no different and kind of sad really.

5. I thought about it for a long, long time.

   I guess I won’t go.

6. He has that ONE song. I remember it as a little kid. Mostly because getting up to turn the dial when it came on. A grown damn man whining like that. Ugh.

7. Did one good record. Everything else pretty much sucked. Doubt he draws much of a crowd anyway.

8. Just who the fuck is this whiner? Nah, I’m not gonna
   look it up.

9. Diogenes,

   Back To The Bars? LOL

10. @ Brad – Little Red Lights.

11. The wifes got that on vinyl. Along with little Peter Frampton. Jeez.

    Something/Anything is the album I believe.

12. What’s a record?

13. Done!

14. No loss for me. Never really cared for his music, even in the early days of ‘the nazz’ at the electric factory in Phila.
    I’ll clue my friends in on how this guy thinks.
    He’s just trying to stir up attention and ticket sales.

15. Donald Fagen, too? Say it ain’t so.

    Whatever happened to “Shut up and sing?”

16. I never went to his show before, why would I start now? Besides, he doesn’t play bluegrass which is soul music for white folks and therefore is unworthy of my attentions. Get back to me when Todd can fucking flatpick like Tony Rice.

17. I though thought Irene Ryan died years ago. That’s a pretty good pic of her tho.

18. Todd,

    So glad we could agree on something.

    Best regards,
    A Trump Supporter

19. WTF is a Todd Rundgren other than another shit stain?

20. Todd who?

21. Alienating the majority of americans is always a smart career move Todd. It probably explains why you had such a meteoric rise to fame, and why most have to ask….who?

22. Come to his show? I didn’t like his music even back in the 70s.

23. Another tired old unhinged angry burnout angry leftist, ‘down with the struggle,’ who thinks it’s 1968. Hates the system that made him a zillionaire and wants to burn it down b/c of peer pressure and b/c he wants to be part of the Kool Kidz Klub. Grow a set and like an adult male, Mr. R, your music isn’t that great by the way and you’re not as important as you think you are. Twit

24. It’s kismet!

    He doesn’t like half the country and that same half doesn’t like him.

    If he had any integrity, he would have refunded their money. Notice he didn’t bring that part up. So he’s a thief, too.

25. dang my music and movie collection is getting smalller and smaller

26. Meh, shut up you old has been. You haven’t had a hit since a hit had you.

27. suffering from “oldtimers” disease.

28. ♫ It wouldn’t have made any difference ….♪♫

29. We Got to get Todd a Woman.

30. I guess they’ll have to wheel half the residents outside when he plays in various nursing homes on his geriatric tour.

31. A shame. Always liked his music and saw him live several times. Had no idea he hates me or that his music was restricted. OK, Todd. I got the message. We’re done.

32. He may still be alive but, I’m shocked he has a tour.
    Bye Felicia.

33. Oh – I thought that was Gloria Steinem.

34. I thought Ted Nugent killed him in a bow hunting accident. Oh well…..

    Hey Todd, what do you call five rabbits walking backwards?
    A receding hare (hair) line.

    I’m two years older but still have all my hair, and then some.

35. The one hit wonder can go screw himself with a splintering wooden dildo. He’d probably like. Anyway I wouldn’t have paid to see this idiot even if I didn’t know he was a liberal lunatic.

36. Well, I enjoyed Todd “the Runt’s” music. Sorry he feels that way.
    Another rich maggot who doesn’t understand what it means to earn (I mean, actually have to do actual work) a living.
    I guess the world looks different when you’re surrounded by sycophants and lickspittles who will suck your cock and give you foot massages in exchange for the crumbs that fall off your table.
    Good for you, Todd. Enjoy it till the end.

    izlamo delenda est …

37. Do I know you?
    I’m Todd.
    Shut up Todd!

38. I took my wife and her mother to see him last year. Wow, talk about boring and preachy. He’s desperately trying to be relevant. His new stuff is just awful and full of all the tired leftist cliches from the last 26 years. I’m not coming to your shows because you suck, Todd. And GFY.

39. Didn’t all three of his fans O.D. years ago?

40. One hit wonder HAS to collaborate with better artists – has-been’s like him should have some gratitude that anyone remembers, but he’s an arrogant libtard jerk, so….

41. Hello, it’s who?

42. His bank balance must be getting dangerously low. PBS Pledge Drive appearance soon.

43. At first glance, I thought that was “Caitlan” Jenner….

44. Todd Rundgrun? I saw the photo and thought it was another story about Gloria Steinem!

45. I thought it was a woman with death goggles.
    Another gem from Upper Darby, PA.

46. Never heard of the turd. I guess that’s a blessing in itself.

47. Fascism is rampant in the music biz. You toe the leftist line or you don’t work. The artists turn into savants that make pretty sounds out of twisted lyrics for their mesmerized minions, but lack the ability to relate to reality. I can still admire their past artistry, but I won’t support them financially.

48. You might be lucky that Trump supporters don’t shut down your show, the way Hillary supporters try to suppress free speech, with violence and lies.

49. I’m gonna break from the herd a bit here.

    I’ve enjoyed some of his music, and he produced a great album for XTC.

    However…

    I won’t be going to his shows. He did have the decency to let people know that he plans on spending part of the show denigrating a part of his potential audience. This is slightly better than insulting someone after you’ve banked their ticket money.

    Turn yourself around, Todd.

50. O.K.

51. No idea who this brain dead liberal is. But pissin off more than half your potential audience and sucking up to the losing side is not a formula for success. Ask the NYTs, Newsweek, Target, Kellogs, The Dixie Chicks, Disney…

52. Hey Todd, you idiot, there are 12 notes not 11.

53. We used to go and see a lot of live music during the Bush years and it always pissed me off when an artist I’d spent a lot of money to see spent their first 5-10 minutes going off on Bush. Rush even made a South Park short movie to dump on him in the beginning of their show. If I had known I would have saved my money and spared myself being held captive to that ranting. Very sort sighted but pretty much expected by these liberals that suffer derangement anytime their guy isn’t in office.

54. I just Googled the Venn Diagram that shows the intersection of Trump Voters and people who pay more than a buck and a half to listen to Todd Rundgren sing “Hello, It’s Me”

    Unfortunately, I dont own an electron microscope so I couldn’t make it out

55. Shut up and, well, just shut up.

56. “Money for nuthin, and yer chicks for free”. Different band, same era. I liked his Two Big Albums. He was 27 then…40 freaking years ago.

    Ironically he’d get much more Forgotten Comeback Tour Free PR if he were to come out and SUPPORT Trump.
    Guess Rundgren pays for advice from the same pollsters as Springsteen.

    Who’s next, Rupert Holmes announcing Pina Coladas are causing Global Warming?

57. A one-hit wonder lectures americans. Yeah, go away ya shitstick.

58. I have a very large music library, nary a one Toad Rundgren recordings can be found.

59. Go ahead, worry bout yourself, not only do I not care so does no one else

    -Mark G. “Feelin’ fine,” salty language.

60. i’m devastated. Whatever shall i do?

    3rd rate reservation casinos are off my list anyway.

61. Works for me you washed up old drug-addled, dying-livered piece of flower-child shit.

62. Your sister June looks like your twin.

63. Speak it, live it, love it, Todd.

    Heh. https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2017/05/15/liberals-are-an-inferno-of-flaming-crazy-and-we-should-pour-gasoline-on-the-fire-n2326754

64. This sounds a lot like the fashion designer(s) who refuse to “dress” First Lady, Melania. LOL! They were never asked to in the first place. Yeah, like I was really thinking about going to a Todd show! Now I’m so incredibly disappointed and feel so bad that he doesn’t like me! Whaaaa! Sure. Too funny. Glad to know, though, that if someone gave me free tickets to his show, I’d know to throw them in the recycle bin.

65. Who?

    Clearly no one of importance. I will happily comply and boycott him.

66. Sad to hear that lame shit Todd. here’s hoping 99% of your audience are Trump supporters and they all demand their money back.

67. Is this the same guy that was cuckolded by Steven Tyler? Liv Tyler’s REAL dad. I remember his band Uptopia and ONE song…”the Last of the New Wave Riders”. Although the “Bang the Drum” song got some airplay, but mostly as filler from the 40 DJs.

68. Is this the same guy that was cuckolded by Steven Tyler? Liv Tyler’s REAL dad. I remember his band Uptopia and ONE song…”the Last of the New Wave Riders”. Although the “Bang the Drum” song got some airplay, but mostly as filler from Pop 40 DJs.

69. He appears to have modeled himself after the Beatles song: “Nowhere Man”.
    I’ve never even heard of this clown!

70. Shit, I thought he was dead!
