Christmas Message from Roger

To all our friends around the world, my team and I want to wish you all a

love filled Christmas and a New Year filled with hope and new beginnings.

We are planning another full touring year for 2012 and hope to see many of

you again coming together in musical celebration. Feeling the love and support from all of you this past year has touched us very deeply and is part of the reason why we’re all ready to 'give a little bit' again next year. We look

forward to seeing you.

With much love,

Roger Hodgson

Fan Reviews

“When everyone rushed the stage I found myself surrounded by teenagers! Teenagers!!! They, along with people my age and older were at the stage - rockin' out, dancing, and singing the words to his songs! Roger Hodgson's

music spans all generations. What a great time.” ~ Jim

“Simply stunning. I couldn't believe how good this gig was. After attending hundreds of gigs over the years the magic had kinda worn off, but Saturday brought it all flooding back. Amazing and fantastic doesn't describe it.”

~ Alan

“I'm a regular gig goer, I try and see a "major “artist around once every

month or so and as a result of this have seen Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton, Fleetwood Mac etc,etc - you get the picture? Although I’ve enjoyed the majority of these gigs none has come remotely close to what I experienced

in Liverpool last night. Roger you had a sold out Philharmonic hall in the

palm of your hand - your songs are incredible, your voice is amazing and

your band are brilliant. Despite your obvious modesty you are a superstar Roger.” ~ Dave

Here’s a glimpse of what you will find on the channel – Roger performing

“The Logical Song” with his band. Enjoy!

‎"The Logical Song is very autobiographical. When I was young, life was very magical. I have old 8-mm movies of me as a little child and I was just a joy bubble, as most children are at that age. Then they sent me away. Well, I was sent to boarding school. 'They sent me away to teach me how to be sensible,' and that was where confusion set in, really. I was taught all these ways to be

and behave and it was not all bad but it definitely set in a level of confusion

to what I felt when I was much younger. So when I left school, the burning question that came down to its rawest place was 'please tell me who I am,'

and that's basically what the song is about." ~ Roger Hodgson

Leave a Comment!

While on Roger’s website, feel free to leave a message on his Guest Book

Here’s what fans said last year after
Roger’s concerts at Pechanga!

“My boyfriend and I saw you at Pechanga in Temecula 2/26/11 -- WOW what a treat!!

Your voice, your music is truly unique. My favorite back in the day was, and I was so

hooked on, Breakfast in America, but I heard some of your other tunes and they were

absolutely beautiful. My boyfriend's favorite was Even in the Quietest Moments. We

were so glad we went. And we look forward to seeing you again.” ~ Rosie & Tom

“My son and I attended the Sat. show @Pechanga. It was fantastic. I attend dozens of

shows per year and yours was one of the finest.” ~ David B.

“I had the great pleasure of going to your opening show at Pechanga casino. I had been

waiting thirty- three years to see you perform live. Your show was more than I could

have ever hoped for. Your music has enlightened my life in so many ways. I had tears of

happiness. You had touched something deep in my soul. I just want to say "Thank You"

It was a night of song that I will always treasure in my heart. You give more than just a

little bit!”
 ~ Mary H.

“Your 2/26/11 show was just wonderful and I'm still flying high from it. Many times

during the show, I was in disbelief that I was actually seeing you live and it was a

dream come true for me. I have your Live in Montreal dvd and it's fantastic but it

doesn't measure up to actually seeing you in person. My husband went to the

merchandise table before the show and brought a gift back for me: an autographed

copy of "Open the Door.” It is my new favorite cd. I LOVED your performance of "Along

Came Mary" and on the way home from the show, I was very happy when I put the cd

on and it kicks off with that song. Wow! We drove over an hour away to see your show

and I played your cd the whole way home and it comforted me through the pouring

rain.
 Thank you Maestro ~ please return again!” ~ Evelyn G.

Classics Live Review

by DAVID WILD, Contributing Editor, Rolling Stone

For most of my life, I've loudly and proudly identified myself as a Supertramp fan. All these years later, I listen with awe

to the altogether stunning new Classics Live album only to discover that I am, in fact, first and foremost, a major Roger

Hodgson fan. His is the voice that spoke to me as a young man, and speaks to me even more powerfully all these years later.

An utterly inspired collection of live performances of the best-loved songs that Roger Hodgson has written and sung to date, Classics Live reminds us in the most vivid way who brought the world such beloved rock standards as "Give A Little Bit,"

"Take The Long Way Home," "The Logical Song" and "Dreamer," and why these shining songs endure as deeply personal

yet somehow universal expression of longing, love and our endless search for human connection. Hodgson's performances

on Classics Live were recorded in various venues around the world -- from France to Brazil to Germany to Venezuela.

Some of the performances here are acoustic, some with a small rock band; others find Hodgson backed by an orchestra

too, and yet the entire album holds together as the deeply felt song cycle of a lifetime from an artist who for too long has

been too humble to lay claim to his own remarkable musical legacy. Roger Hodgson may have taken the long way home,

but with Classics Live he's back and he has never sounded better.

~

Roger’s 2011 world tour continues to be a tremendous success. He performed over 50 shows in no fewer than 14

countries, offering something for everyone – performing solo, with his backing band, and with symphony orchestra and

choir. We want to thank all of you who come to the shows and help make them so special.

Be sure to leave a message for Roger on his Guest Book or his Facebook page. Although he is not always able to

personally respond, he does read his messages and loves hearing from you. Share your personal experiences about

Roger’s shows and what his music means to you.

We thank you for your continued support and wish you and your loved ones a joyous holiday season.

All the best,
Linda and Shakti
