One of my favorites is Gord tapping his foot three times during the pause near the end of "Don Quixote". It always seems that some unaware audience member starts to clap, thinking it's the end of the song.


There is also a short pause during the Canadian Railroad Trilogy - someone even started to clap at the Sunday Concert live recording.

Maybe the pauses are a way for Gordon Lightfoot to see if he still attracts new fans - if someone starts to clap before the song is finished, he knows he is still attracting new crowds.
