> Klingman has been battling cancer for some time and is fighting what 
> he calls his "health battle". "I have found that the best medicine 
> that I take to deal with illness is music," he says in posting at his 
> website. "To play music and work with other musicians, is the most 
> healing thing that I can do. So I plan to be performing at my benefit 
> and healing the audience while the audience heals me."

> Rundgren put Utopia together as a prog-rock band after noticing the 
> impact of acts like Genesis, Yes and Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
>
> Utopia will perform at the Highline Ballroom in New York on January
