Bill and everybody
I have it on good authority that Wayne's site uses the most up to date information.
In his January Commentary he said:-
"As we turn the corner on a new year, Lightfoot concert goers can eagerly anticipate 35-40 dates being booked in 2006"
and continued
"As of this writing, approximately 25 dates are sewn up (at the time and until yesterday he was actually showing only 22 not including 3 or 4 at Massey)

leaving 10-15 additional concerts to be finalized to finish out the touring year."
In fact with Austin now included in his list at
http://www.lightfoot.ca/2006.htm
there are now
23 known dates
Note that Wayne also states:-
"Massey Hall tentatively scheduled for the third weekend in November"
witch/which being as how the "Canadian" tour includes:-
Montreal November 9th
Ottawa November 10th
seems to point to a 4 day season (4 days were sheduled for 2002 and the sold out May 2005 season was also 4 concerts) starting on Wednesday November 15th thru Saturday November 18th
looking at the calendar shows that the first weekend in November is the 4th and 5th the second the 11th and 12th so the 18th is part of the third wekend
