Today and always I wish you everything wonderful I wish for my own family. You probably won't get a chance to read this but for my birthday present this year my son in Memphis called and when I picked up the phone, all I heard was you singing,,,,,,,Stacey said "What better present could we give you". I adored Elvis and met him several times but you had already stolen my heart.

From your first album which my sister brought to me in 1969, your concert in Charleston, SC in 1970 to this very morning, I want to thank you for all the happiness you have brought into my life.

"GOD BLESS YOU TODAY ON YOUR BIRTHDAY AND FOREVER."

What a sweet post Jean. Thanks for sharing with us.

Happy Birthday Gordon. Thanks.

I saw A.F. (aengus finnan) on Sunday-he didn't sing "Lightfoot" though..I'm sure I would have got teary.. It was a great show with Terry Tufts and Jory Nash each doing Lightfoot songs individually and as a trio. They also did some of their own material. Heavenly.

Char, I'm very surprised AF didn't sing "Lightfoot"...now THAT'S a tribute if EVER I've heard one!
Was lucky enough to hear him sing it shortly after GL was hospitalized. He was at one of those "home concerts". It was completely unexpected, and I (as quietly as I could cuz I was in someone's parlor) completely lost it. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/redface.gif

I have tix to see AF, JN and TT on Saturday night...as long as it doesn't snow. My fingers are crossed.

Well when you see my boys in Londonderry tell them I sent you! And give them hugs from me. Take lots of pics! I'll see them in January with Jenney at the Toronto shows.
lol
They are constantly amazed at where I show up and at other folks who show up for concerts who say I sent them....or who I have with me...
have a great time....I want to hear all about it/them....

hey, barbara...i wanna hear all about IT too (i already heard enuf about THEM from char, lol)

if the boys are gonna do a few originals as well as lovely GL covers then you should tell Tufts that another pal of yours saw him do himself proud in Milton recently and i'd highly recommend requesting a tune of his that's about his father...dunno the title, sorry but niice...then again, you'll probably 'lose it' also, eh http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif...i love AF's 'Lately'..sorry, off topic bigtime...i guess i'm not much fun when i go out, i always request pretty sombre stuff

btw, 'kidding' aside (re CC's invasion crack http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif) we sure "HAVE" an classless, idiot lady in our govt...actually, good news, it's now "HAD" http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

You thought that was a joke? Our troops are lined up on this side of the border as I type this, armed with hockey sticks and maple syrup. We're coming to lay seige to Toronto and we aren't givin' up until we get our hands on Lightfoot, so we can bring him back and claim him on this side of the border.
Cathy http://www.cathycowette.com

The troops will include me, Cathy!!

lol, will it be like the British Invasion?
well, some good came outta that actually http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif

Jean, musta been some setlist @ that '70 gig!

ok, GL is non-negotiable (well, you'll have to sneak him by char, goodluck!) but we'll trade ya kdlang for Pinball Clemens

ps) go Argos

I'll up the bet... I'll throw in Paul Simon and Bob Dylan.

I did a show at the Roselawn Theater in Port Colborne last year. One set was all Lightfoot tunes. I started off by offering to trade Dylan for Lightfoot. I got quite a few laughs over that one, but sadly no takers.

As far as sneaking Gord past Char, I have that strategy all planned out. I'm just going to place chocolates on the ground, each one about three feet apart and oriented in a northernly direction, right up Yonge Street.

chocolate won't work anymore...the (almost) carb-free diet has driven the devil from me...
lol
i enjoy my choco still but in small bits and only once in a while...
you've got to think of something else i'm afraid.....and Dylan ain't gonna do it.....

Cathy, Cathy, Cathy...you're strategically out of it. lol.
don't surround her with chocolate. surround her with AF and Kris Kristofferson, and then, while she's distracted....

that just might do it....maybe....almost.....the AF is mighty tempting....
what a dilemma....

I'm sure AF would be happy to lay nice big sloppy kiss on you, and you wouldn't notice anything else...namely, the girls making off with GL. lol
