when you saw him in BC he was hardly playing it (2006 nor 2007 after having played it about 30% of the time in his 2005 comeback year)
but you've been unlucky since...based on a decent set list sampling from
www.lightfoot.ca he played it:
30% of the time in 2008
70% of the time in 2009
this year he played it the second night in St John's...I suppose you were there the first!
congrats on the great seats and I would say the odds are now in your favour

it's maybe his most wonderful tune and should be played at every performance, imo...with that said, i always thought it could use a bridge
btw, i think it's tasty that he lets the keyboard mimic the 'oooos' now during the closing section
