but, wonder if you could provide a consolidated reference to any video links relating to the below 'checklist' per www.Lightfoot.ca?

it would be great for Gord fans who have just stumbled on the internet or corfid also because it's pretty easy to miss a video post or to attempt to search for specifics - this would also eliminate a lot of repeat posts too - oh, Radio audio could also be included

while I've got the suggestion box open, how about the same for "Lightfoot covers"?
ok, great that new section has been added

there is a lot fo work to do there, every day a new amateur Lightfoot cover must be appearing on youtube but even just assembling the mass of pro Covers out there (see Waynes full list at the Lightfoot site) is overwhelming...I bet Wayne gave up on trying to keep up on those, whew

but the Covers section was just a second thought above, I think what a new member would be most excited about is a section of actual Gord performances

oh, I didnt necessarily mean for them to be in Discussion area but perhaps off the main page similar to char interview

I would over ride the current "Live 8 at AOL Music" section and expand it to all available performance...TV or pro recorded ones anyhow, not all those cellphone bootleg videos unless they have decent audio...btw, char's SFAWN recording at Hugh's is definitely on the "include" list


btw, something else that would be fine would be to have any of the Lightfoot dedicated lyrics posted for those who don't know the JP Cormier, Guess Who, Finnan, etc pieces...not every artist has a selection of songs written about them

anyhow, something to ponder...I guess adding a new section is not as hard as I thought....I guess the Covers could have a thread for each song or artist (tough choice) and then be expanded within each, by artist or song, respectively

way to go char, florian
