Re: Durham NC article
That was lovely. Jim has spoken of Gordon Lightfoot in his editorials often through the years, always with the same near-reverence as in this story.
As long as Mr. Lightfoot will honor us with his presence, I shall attend as often as I possibly can. I still see and hear with the eyes and ears of memory. I'm at the age where the losses are mounting all around me so I hold what matters: this music, this band, ever more dear. The lesson that this band is teaching us this tour is important: the necessity of adapting to difficult change and loss with grace, humor, and hard work.
