Todd Bode

Hi all - Looks like I missed a good time at the reunion. Wish that I could have made it.

My most permanent work has been in the music industry, and things are busy right now. Summer times are always full of tours (band) where I do my lighting and sound tech services. We just had Ted Nugent and Jonny Lang here. I probably have as many guitars as Jonny has (only 7). I've gotten rid of a couple. I toured with ZZ Top and The Beach Boys for a time. I've written a few songs for each of them. For ZZ Top, I wrote "Going Topless" - but haven't gotten together to finish the music to it. And the Beach Boys, I haven't heard from for about a year - we usually email at least a few times a year.

I've had a job at the Radisson Hotel as a housekeeper. I did a lot of giving demos at stores - a good job for me because I do like to gab & get paid for it. ha! But that's been slow now. I've worked for handicapped services as a personal care attendant. And I work as an advocate for the handicapped community. Nothing special or anything.

I do work with my church - I'm on the voting board. I've published a book "Unique Expressions" on my poetry. Not a super huge book, but I had to get it published because people were trying to steal my writings (they are "that good!"). My next one will be huge. I've had problems with my back. surgeries & more recently with my neck I've lost my hair (and my mind with it!) ha!

Your friend, Todd "O.D." Bode ("O.D." was my stage name.)
