Comments about this gig posted on various mailing lists and messageboards include:

"With Todd and the band ready to play, the curtains fly open taking out some of the microphones....I think Rachel caught hers, but Kasim and Jessie weren't so quick with their reflexes!"

"The performance was spot on and the sound was excellent."

"First time I've seen Kasim in a different role with the band....his playing was fierce and flawless. I know we all love the technical prowlness of Jessie, but Kasim was a rock."

"Speaking of Kasim, and this is just my opinion, he looks a little tired and ready for something different. Maybe he's missing his role with Meatloaf, but I sense he wants to be somewhere else. There seemed to be more interaction between Kasim and Prairie than with Todd."

"Prairie is oblivious to the bottle tops Kasim shot his way!"

"Rachel was a nice addition...though she doesn't do the bass line runs that Kasim usually does with the songs."

"Technical glitches seemed to haunt Kasim and Prairie though we couldn't really tell from what we were hearing....it all sounded great!"

The venue (taken from the KasimInfo.com Blog that day):
Tonight Kasim Sulton plays the third gig of this part of The Todd Rundgren 2009 Arena Tour. The gig tonight is at the Plaza Theater in Orlando, Florida and starts at 8.00pm.

This venue is located at 425 North Bumby Avenue, Orlando, Florida 32803 and tickets (at $39.50 + $3 charges) can be purchased from this link. Earlier today there was a pair of seats available in the 9th row.

This theater originally opened in 1963 and is now a theatre for the performing arts, although it first started as the first twin (two-screen) cinema in Orlando. It has had a varied history as it was bought by the Odeon Corporation in 1985 and then by a Christian family in 1992 for Christian-themed shows until 1996.

As far as I can discover this appears to be Kasim Sulton's first appearance at this venue although he has played in Orlando numerous times. The last time Kasim played a gig in Orlando was on Monday 14th April last year when he played at Hard Rock Live (also with Todd Rundgren.
