Val, I'm not sure who Paul was. - I'd have to check the pictures I have. There were some people in the room on Saturday and Sunday that I didn't know and I was busy with the raffle as well.
The church concert was an event I didn't plan on attending as I had other plans this past weekend.
BTW - I am at least 40 minutes east of Toronto by car in good weather and traffic conditions and I don't have a car. Any trips I take into Toronto are big undertakings that entail a lot of time and scheduling because they are taken via taxis, trains, subways, streetcar and buses thru a couple of different transit systems and can be quite costly.
I tend to limit my trips to things more Lightfoot oriented and easier to get to. Especially in winter weather..
Add in the fact that this weekend we had, and are still having horrendous weather in and around Toronto, I'm not sure that anyone other than those close to the church would have attended. All of my plans were cancelled and the only thing I did outside this past weekend is shovel snow and ice, and salt my property.
And for me personally, while it is interesting that he was at our Saturday jam sessions and plays guitar with Red Shea, it wasn't enough to get me to attend the church concert with all of the inherent planning, time and cost and the other things I had planned.
However I do hope he attends the May 2008 Massey shows and is once again a part of any jam sessions that may take place.
I enjoyed reading about the church event and I too have had posts (even with significant Lightfoot news) where some people I thought would reply, didn't, altho practically everyone else did....
