Who else besides Boarderstone and me are counting the days before they see Gordon in concert this month? :D It is so hard to believe another year has passed. I am looking forward to hopefully meeting some of you this year.

Have fun! As for me, I'm just hoping some additional dates get added to that concert schedule.

I will think positive thoughts that the whole year is scheduled soon. If I hear anything I will let you know.

The whole year? Let's not tire the guy out for pete's sake! :D

He does need to rest up after this tour is over,I feel. He played a lot of dates last year,especially the Massey shows.

Yep...a good long rest,& then a new CD. :D

I didn't mean every single day. I want him to be healthy and be around for a lot of years to come too. :D

Good to hear brink. It would be great if someone from this group could be at every concert.

Thanks, but no big deal if he doesn't get here. I live in the middle of nowhere, so never really expect him to appear in this area. I always travel to see him, so likely will end up doing the same at least a couple of times this year.

Hello Borderstone,
I'm smiling for you. I hope you have a good seat and nobody's camera is flashing and making sounds so you can hear.

I hope you all have a good week.

Hey Dream Street Rose! You bet I have a good seat! (A rarity in my usual concert going experiences).

I have a 4th row seat! Yeah baby! :D If I could have gotten to Ticketmaster a week sooner (and had the $$) I could've possibly had a 1st row,something I've never had!

Unless you count standing in a crowd practically smushed up against a stage first row. (Bryan Adams show 1985)

Oh and yes....T minus 10 days & counting!!

Boy,how did 5 months go so fast?

I can't afford to go to a concert. He can come over to my house if he wants. :D

Hi Borderstone,

Fourth row sounds like a winner to me. I am under 5 feet tall(or short), so I try to get front row or a level higher than the stage.
The first concert we are going to in Anaheim I was lucky enough to get seats in a "special" area that is suppose to be great seating. I have never been there so I will find out soon. :D

I bought Gordon's book "I Wish You Good Spaces", on EBay last year so I am taking that for him to sign. Great addition to my Lightfoot collection.

Enjoy the weekend and please let me know how excited you are as the concert approches.

Hey Borderstone,

Thanks for the laugh. :D You have a good sense of humor.



I'll ask one more time. Will anyone besides my husband and me be at any of the California concerts in Jan. or Feb.????

That's great, when I was in Tucson in October I was telling my Uncle that he was coming down. Uncle Jack and his wife both said that they really doubted that there were many, if any, Gord fans in the Tucson area. Glad to hear it is sold out.

I must admit I also shared those doubts, to the point where I wondered if the event might be canceled due to lack of sales. I see two possibilities here :

1) There are more folks with good taste around here than I imagined

or

2)With the aging of our population, a surprising number of people have acquired the same wisdom I possessed 30+ years ago.
