    For those who criticize this performance, keep in mind this was done with students - young people within a performing arts school at Notre Dame. These young folks have yet to be seasoned pros like Todd, whom I give major-league props for being involved in the education of our youth. So let's get off the "music critic" bullshit and let's appreciate this for what it is - Todd showing our young folks the importance of creative music. Sure as hell hope it will beat the garbage that we hear now in the commercial landscape.

    Having lived in NYC and LA for a decade each, I don't get star struck. However, if ever cross paths with this man, I'm probably going to go straight into the ugly cry. He has written some of my lifelong favorite songs. I think he must have one of the purest hearts of any human on this planet.
