OK first of all I must thank Mr Google who quickly found for me
Val's webste web page at:
http://mageenet.org/LightfootTributeBand/
this is, as currently extant, primarily about the second pair of Caffe Lena concerts
held on April 25th and 26th 2003 the latter of which (for those who do not or never knew or like Cathy have evidently forgotten and she has a good medical excuse for that )
featured the second incarnation of the LTB starring
Cathy Cowette, Derek Kidd, and Ed Mullen, with Matt Carl
this was a successful follow up to the first held a year earlier when because IIRC Matt
could not attend Eric Greenberg stood in for him (sat in in fact) as shown in the photo on Val's site

Val's caption reads:-
L-R: Ed, Cathy, Eric, Derek, Lori, Dan
Caffè Lena, March 22, 2002
(Dan being Cathy's son)
For anybody here who does not know the story of this truly remarkable first GL Tribute Band there is a very good description of how it was formed at:-
