Colorado Springs pics
 
8 Attachment(s)
John (Mr. Hoot n Holler) attended the Colorado Springs show and has these pics to share. John is from Canada but lives in Colorado Springs with his wife and family. He owns a beautiful resort and has just embarked on a new adventure-owner of a lovely venue for concerts after months of refurbishing it.
I'll make it out there one day John!
John had this to say: How lucky have I been to see Gord in so many places over the decades. 1967 in Montreal at EXPO 67, San Diego and LA in the 70's, Phoenix / Tempe and Dallas/ Fort Worth in the 80's, Denver and Reno in the 90's, Denver and Albuquerque in the 2000's and now in my current home town of Colorado Springs in 2010. Damn, that spans 5 decades. What a great time to be alive and what a life it's been so far.

Great pictures of Gord and the band. But what's he doing with his hair style? Going for the Willie Nelson look?

I couldn't think of who this was, but he is the gent that has a resort in Manitou Springs, isn't he?
I have always been the defender of Gord's hair and what he does or doesn't do with it, but I have to admit - it is time for a haircut.
The camera police were standing at the end of my row, glad somebody got pics.

About a year and a half ago, in St. Louis, my wife was complementing Gord on his hair and he said, " Aaaah, I just let it go."

I think it looks good on him!! Great pics!!!!!!!!!!!

We've been online friends for years...he and his wife worked so hard to refurbish that theatre..I'd love to see Gord there, as would John!

Nice pictures! You obviously had a better seat than we did. We had row D, and to our surprise the seats were about a dozen rows back. The sound was good, and no surprises in the set list. I feel guilty, I didn't take down the set list.
We did get to the Denver show where my daughter entertained Melissa, Deb and I. It was her second concert, and she knew just about all the songs! We were lucky enough to get a photo taken.
