My wife and I saw Gordon Lightfoot last night at the Pabst Theater in Milwaukee, WI. I have to say of the hundreds and hundreds of concerts I have seen in the past 20 years, this was by far the worst! I had seen Gordon about 6 years ago at the Potowatomi Casino in Milwaukee and really enjoyed it. Gordons voice was non exisitant. His voice and condition almost brought tears to my eyes. Clearly he should no longer be performing. I felt completely ripped off of both my time and my $, which we had great seats at a wonderful venue. If he cannot give a reasonable performance, recall his lyrics, play guitar and speak coherently to the audience, he should not be touring and expecing people to pay there hard earned money for such an embarrasment. It may have been partially due to the fact that we were aparantly near the end of his tour, but nonetheless I expected more and wish that I could be refunded as we left early and did not enjoy any part of this shameful performance. By the way...I think that Gordon is a true legend, a pristine songwriter and a beautiful artist who's music touches my soul. I will just have to enjoy his recordings as I would Never see him again.
