I too remember the old Front Row Theater.The first thing when I heard GL was going to be there I went right out and bought tickets.I had never been there before and when I saw my seat location {row "G" I believe}I thought "well that's gonna be a mile back there." When I got there and sat down I felt like I was darn near sitting on the stage.It was impossible to get a bad seat there no matter how far back you sat.Also,the crowd there was so enthusiastic,but at the same time well mannered.The applause was deafening but when it died down you could have heard a pin drop until Gord started singing again.At the end of the performance there were standing ovations and two encores,what a great night.By contrast, I saw him once at Blossom ....I'll bet you did too,and the acoustics were bad,GL was just a speck in the distance,and people around me talked so loud I could hardly hear the music .I finally got mad enough to start yelling at people to shut up since I didnt pay good money to hear them blab! By that time it was too late to save the evening anyhow,but I swore I would not return.So far I have kept my promise.
