Princeton, NJ 5/10/17
We were glad to be able to attend Gord's first show of ten in his May schedule. Our previous shows have typically been in the middle or at the end of the run, so I was curious how his voice would be. He was in great form - talkative and his voice was strong. My husband thought his voice was even stronger in the second set - guess he had a chance to warm up. Princeton is a beautiful area, and the McCarter theater is a lovely venue. The last time Gord performed there was 2001. It was great to see Bill, Carl, John, Susan and Mom.
Here's the setlist. I think it's correct - hard to read my scribble this morning.
