Hey Chuck - long time no see!
I'm so glad you were able to see The Man! I was totally blown away with the Massey Hall concert I saw in May. I'll agree with you that he is far more chatty between songs than I've ever seen him be before - and I for one, love it! I don't understand those who comment about his voice being "thin" either. I just don't hear it at all; but I never saw him "back in the day" so I have nothing to compare it too other than earlier recordings.
So good to see you posting here again. Hope all is well with you (beyond the cloud floating that seeing a Lightfoot concert envokes, that is

)!
