Or any place else outside of Canada/America?

He's known all over the world I'd imagine and he use to tour in Europe in the 70s.

Is it the long travel or money?

When I fist was priveleged to get backstage in 1999 I made sure that I laid the idea with Gord himseklf plusBarry Harvey and all the band members that they should consider flying over by Concorde an idea squashed when the following year one crashed in Paris, and now they are all out of service anyway.Another of my bright ideas was to try to persuade Gord to sign on as an entertainer on board either the QE2 upon which I came to New York 6 very happy years ago this very week or now the even larger (vessel and audience) QM2
Another thing to try to remember talking to him about if I am lucky again come August or November

In 1990, interviewed by Marilyn Mackay. He told her.

We got to travel all over the world, and would be in a position to go back to these places. But I dont want to go back to these places, I like to stay fairly close to home. And play on both sides of the line, here, in Canada, and the United States.

We do about 60 shows a year, which may sound like a lot, but really it's not.
