Gordon Lightfoot Forums - View Single Post - Kingston Ontario (one blogger's thoughts)

I read that a couple of times and, frankly don't know if I'm more confused or ticked off. Partly that's because I don't know the blogger (age, experience, etc.) Rather see him on TV - what's up with that? Who prefers a TV performance to live? Though in Gord's case you'd get precisely the same thing, lol.

I'm not sure if the blogger was more disappointed in Gord or his audience, all those balding pates, you know. Maybe it's me; I don't care for snarkiness whether it's Sarah Palin or this person. Glad to hear Leonard Cohen is still bowling them over though he's not my cuppa. Correct me if I'm wrong, because I don't follow him, but hadn't he been semi-retired for many years until recently when he hit the road again to recover from financial losses? Well if you've been preserving your energy for a decade and a half instead of doing nine months a year on the road year in and year out, heck yeah you've got more energy.

Okay, rant off. Man, I don't know where THAT came from (probably doing 5 loads of laundry today; I'm tired - spring cleaning.)
