Ah, I remember that look. Saw Gord in 1974 at Monroe Community College (May 3) in the auditorium. No keyboards then. He was not happy as I recall because at one point shortly after launching into a song, a string broke on his guitar and he had to stop, re-string and tune it while keeping the audience from getting too restless. Wish I had a setlist but the only song I can swear to is The Auctioneer because I had never heard it and had to look it up (no Internet of course.) Can't answer for Gord but I had a good time.
