Todd Snider

What to expect from Todd Snider? A little bit of everything. Some folk, a little rock, maybe some blues, a few rants, several great stories. each show is different.

I've seen him solo a few times and he puts on just as good a show as with a full band. Greatest singer in the world? No. Greatest musician in the world? No. But he makes up for it with his pure will to entertain.

For his career status, it concerns me that Snider is on the other side of Nashville (from Oregon, via, Texas); never to become as popular and known as he should be. the scope of his connections from artists like Cody Canada to Widespread Panic should excite an audience, but a lot of time it just baffles most people who are stuck in a genre rut.

Snider is not afraid to cover a song from an idol like Jerry Jeff Walker or John Prine, or too proud to let others cover his material (and have hits with them), like Robert Earl Keen or Gary Allan.

With his biting lyrics and social commentaries, this is a guy that should be heard. But by his admission, he's not trying to change your mind, he's just trying to get things off his chest and maybe make you think in the process while you're tapping your toes.

Todd’s show at the Boulder Theater started with the humor he’s become famous for - self deprecating and able to catch you off guard. He apologized for not being barefoot but shared that his doctor told him a lot of his health woes come from not wearing shoes.....and then of course drugs. “Talk Blues” has replaced “Grunge Rock Blues” in his song line up and is every bit as funny. And he expresses his opinion only because....it all rhymes. Best song of the night? “I Think I’m an Alright Guy”. Every one knew the words and sang along. I have loved Todd’s music for 23 years and couldn’t be more for finally having gotten a chance to see him live!

First time seeing Todd Snider. Drove down from London.Ontario .Canada. About eiight hours.Fantastic show. everything I had hoped for.I really enjoy his music and storytelling.Good sound and venue. Wish I didn't have to travel so far to see him but it is what it is.Met a lot of nice people at the concert and bought a couple of t-shirts as well as his latest C.D. Rorey Carroll was also very good but I came to hear Todd. Was pleasantly surprised to hear him sing a couple John PRINE TUNES.Have seen J.P. play about six times. Great Show Todd.Thanks and keep it up. Would love to see you in London some time. And Oh. Happy Birthday.

Don't know where to start. Put it this way, if he played 7 nights in a row, I'd go every night. He'd probably play a different set each night, he has so many great songs.
Crowd was lame, but it was hurricaney and this is a red state, and Todd's pretty open and unapologetic about his lifestyle. He is a national treasure in my opinion/
Not a show for the uptight!
Opener was great too and the did a sweet duet to end the show.

Saw Todd on March 18th at the Oriental Theater in Denver, CO. Absolutely fantastic show! Played a great setlist!!! There were a couple of songs I wish he would've played but not at the expense of any of the ones he did play. Rorey Carroll kicked ass too! Was pleasantly surprised by her. I'd definitely go see her again. I'd honestly describe the show as perfect. Go see Todd Snider at a venue near you!!!!!

Loved seeing/hearing you wed nite at the neptune!

Todd Snider was absolutely amazing. This was he first time I had ever been to one of his shows and he did not disappoint. He was everything I had been told and then some. The way he interacts with the crowd and tells stories is second to none. He finished the show by bringing out John Prine!! Definitely a night I will not forget

I really love this guy.

As I try to explain to my friends ...

"anyone can pick up a guitar, strum a few chords and sing some stuff .... some people are just better at it."

todd is very empowering about life and generally makes you feel like an 'all right guy'.

Thanks Todd.

ps. wearing my t-shirt! ha !!

Saw him in Nashville with the Hard Working Americans. They were amazing!!! Can't watch Todd perform without a smile on your face and your butt shaking. Got tickets for the Ryman Birthday show and I cannot wait. Don't believe it would be possible for him to put on a bad show.

Man what a great show........as always. The venue,The Fort Collins Armory, is a great place to see a show! Todd was awesome, funny, self deprecating, did I mention awesome? I will see Todd every time he comes to town and I'll definitely see another show at the Armory.
