Saw him live today and what an experience that was, what an artist so professional and nice person he talked between each song, and said Oslo was the nicest city he has been in (where he got that from I don't know)
great band, sick saxofonist and a realy good drummer, and Roger was confident  on the keys and 12 strings only thing I missed was an Electric guitar so that their could be more crunch but the concert was a trougly a progressive one epic songs intricate changes. artsy and clever.

If you see just one concert of Roger Hodgson's you will be hooked.  He understands his power, the fans before him. He makes is apparent his appreciation of the music and how it affects the fans  Many do not realize he wrote many of Supertramp's biggest hits: "Give a Little Bit, Dreamer, Take the Long Way Home, Logical Song, and Breakfast in America" to name a few.  Roger's soft spoken, candid, humble presence puts you at ease and than he starts to sing.  He sounds better than ever!!   I agree I do miss the electric guitar as well, but the twelve string sings loud enough for all to hear.
