I had never been to Gordon Lightfoot concert.

My vision/perception of Gordon Lightfoot is and always be that of earlier years, those with which I grew up with. Those that will keep me a fan forever.

However, going into the concert, I expected the worst, with the years that I'd seen and obviously had he. And to be perfectly honest, I was somewhat disappointed, on the onset. Obviously, as stated, Gordon was not on his game (so to speak).

But, something has not been related, with respect to this concert. I haven't heard anything about the performance of Terry Clements. From my perspective, he carried the concert. Yet, his recognition from Gordon gernerated only a sheepish grin. He played with his mind into the music and, seemingly, cared for no attention.

I was mesmerized by Terry's performance. Perhaps that was due to no previous (Lightfoot) concert exposure (on my part), but I've never seen anything like it.

I just want to give applause where it is due.

Great comment Boone. I was there, too, for my first GL concert in over 20 years. I had a great seat and was fascinated by the cohesion and talent of all of the guys. There was all kinds of communication going on there between them, even though a word was never spoken. A smile, a look, a nod...it was such fun to witness the rapport they have with each other and see them interact. It was like they had their own code.
