i hope they do it some justice too... and there's some new info that the mishmash of other features over the years have not touched on... walking about the Opera House and the original church of Gord (good one, char) while reminiscing isn't new, is it? Rev Karen has hours of Gord talking about young Gordie and the choir years. It it likely aimed general audiences, like they are hearing about his 2002/3 setback and recovery for the first time...hope not...looking forward to the new footage!!!!

it's always hard to top the Orillia footage with Gord talking about the bulldozers moving earth, etc... in the classic Telescope, Lightfoot Forward...but please do!

Tosoni produced this also,

i dont know what connection there is between Arquette and Mitchell, odd

maybe similar to the Steve Miller and Lightfoot one

funny how Joni's Painting with Words and Music 1998 release was same year as A Painter Passing Through

hey, if they wanted to learn about and capture Gord's hometown vibe, they should have gone ahead of Gord and got some Culture Days weekend footage ...talking to Canadians... Orillians
