What 3 songs do you wish Gord would do in concert still or if you have never heard in concert?

I wish he'd do Saturday Clothes for one.

HI char,

I'd pick the following three:

Me And BobbyMcGee:
Even though he didn't write this one, I think it would sound great performed live, and it's on the same album as Saturday Clothes. http://www.corfid.com/ubb/wink.gif

Affair on 8th Avenue:
All choking, mumbling, sneezing, standing up etc. needs to be forbidden during this song.

and

A Tree To Weak To Stand:
Because it's one of my all time favorite songs and I'm listening to it at the moment.

and as three are not enough, I'd like as an encore:

Boss Man.

Wow, it's so hard to choose only three. I guess I'd go with Ballad of the Yarmouth Castle, Mother of a Miner's Child...and...Tattoo. Not that I don't like his more uptempo ones, but he tends to sing a lot of them in concert...High and Dry and Summertime Dream, Alberta Bound, etc. etc. are some of my all-time favorites.

How about three hundred?!! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif why aren't my smilies coming out? Anyone have an idea? The disable box is NOT checked. Thanks....

Hi Char,
I've never seen him play live so any three would be perfect, but the three on my wish list must be:

It's Worth Believin'
Seven Island Suite
Yarmouth Castle

I could go on forever !

I'd like him to perform:

LOOKING AT THE RAIN
LET IT RIDE
IF YOU NEED ME

I could think of several others too - these
came to mind first. Good topic.
