Gordon Lighfoot

[Rayjr62@aol.com]

This is the cleanest, most professional looking web-site that I have ever seen. I am currently teaching myself HTML. I hope to someday design sites that are this good. I do not know who designed this site, but they sure did a helluva good job.
Gordon Lightfoot is one of my favorite artists. In fact, as I am typing this ditty I am currently listening to Summertime Dream. "Protocol" is playing. I have seen Gordon three times: Twice in the Bay Area(I am originally from Northern California) and once in Reno, Nevada several years ago. He is great. And so is his band. I never tire of listening to his music; It stands the test of time as his songs are timeless pieces of art. His music has gotten me through some pretty rough times in my life. I consider him a minstrel, confidant and psychiatrist! I know that sounds stupid, and I have never even met the man, but if I ever did I would tell him that straight to his face. It is truely how I feel about the man and his music. Thank you for consideration of this submission.

Hi Rayjr62,

Thank you for your kind words.

I start to blush

I really like what you had to say about Gordon Lightfoot and I can assure you a lot of other people feel the same.

Hi Ray when you posted your message I was at his concert here in Brantford.. like you I never tire of his music. Well I have met him twice. If you wanna meet him wait by the backstage door, he generally doesn't have a throng of people waiting for him. Often you will be invited in.. that is how I met him.
He autographed my LP copy of Summertime Dream.. I have it framed and on the wall.
At his concerts I feel like the youngest person there, everybody else must be 50-90 yrs old. I am 31!
Keep on checking his tour dates and grab your chance.. as he is 61 now I am sure his days of touring won't last forever.

Regards Gord

OK wise guy. why did you think I said "back to the future")(in that splendid film the two time travellers went back in time)
I thought it worth reviving as the initiator had such nice things to say about
Gord and Florian's efforts
OK you can go back to the past now and think up some other names to register under
One suggestion "(S)Marty" McFly

Marty McFly, or Canadian born, Michael J. Fox.

Why is 7 years "old",for inatimate objects,music,TV,movies & websites... but not for people?

[closetcanadian]

For people, "old" is 20 years older than whatever age you happen to be. When you were 15, people aged 35 seemed old to you, right? But now that you're nearing 40, "old" has a different meaning. And when we are 65, we won't be old, but people who are 85 will seem old to us.
It's all relative!

It's worth repeating IMHO
and I stil deo not understand why back in 1999 or at any time the topic srarter thought it belonged in the "small talk" forum!!!

[ELizabeth]

Just for the record Gordon Lightfoot is 68 or 69 not 61.

the post that says he's 61 was posted in 1999.
