Thank you for clearing that up for me. Next stop, 2 nights in Orilla to see the man (Gordon not Bob.)1 night in Stratford to see, who else? Gordon. Looking forward to it.

Awesome! We want a full report! By the way, I saw the show in Jackson, CA. This was the last night of the current tour. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring a pen. (Ooops!). But here is the setlist...not in order (unless my memory is a lot better than I give it credit for), but close. I don't think I missed anything--at least I hope not!

Sea of Tranquility
14 Karat Gold
Never Too Close
Beautiful
Let it Ride
Waiting For You (there was a fun moment here when he walked away from the mic
during one of the instrumental breaks, looked down and said "there's really
nothing to this!")
Rainy Day People (another nice moment: as TC played his solo, GL took a couple
of steps toward him and said "whoa!")
Baby Step Back
The Watchman's Gone
Ribbon of Darkness/Sundown
Carefree Highway
Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Painter Passing Through
If You Could Read My Mind
Don Quixote
Blackberry Wine
Early Morning Rain
Restless
Old Dan's Records
encore: Canadian Railroad Trilogy

The venue itself was spectacular--I'd definitely go back there again. Very nice theatre (maybe about 2,000 would be my guess), and it was filled. Also a wonderfully enthusastic crowd. GL and the guys were just right ON--there's no other way to describe it. Every song was nailed to the wall. Normally, I find it just a little hard to get into the "casino" shows (i.e., the "one-setters."). It's just a personal thing--I just seem to get into the flow of things better when it's a two-set-with-intermission show. But not this time! From the get-go to the very end, it was a magical night.
