Bru, you're up very early!! Isn't it like 7:00 a.m. for you now? (I just learned you're in England, eh?) <hee hee> (picking up the lingo, too!)

Yes, going to both immediately was my next thought -- I mean, why NOT??!!!

Unfortunately the Universal Amphitheater is too large a venue for GL. Tickets for his April 23 show at the Cerritos Center are already on sale. That's not too far from the SF Valley!

I know and I can't make that show, darn it!! No way under the sun can I make it. <sigh> So, I just have to wait a few more days for Vegas, baby! (Why is Universal too big a venue? I went there for Tina Turner, Olivia Newton-John (hey, I was dragged there)... certainly Gord can pack it in!! I'll fight anyone says different! (sorry, that Timmy B thing got me mad!!)

Sheryl,

I wish Gordon could fill the Universal Amphitheater or the Greek Theatre like he did in the 70s but the managers of these facilities cater to a younger audience. Besides, I'm looking forward to seeing Gord in a smaller arena. And I have tickets in the 7th row! Have fun in Vegas!

You know, in the 70s and 80s Gord used to regularly play the Royal Albert Hall in London - capacity either 3000 or 5000 (cant remember now) and he used to fill the Hall! I always sat centre front row.
Yes, Sheryl, I'm in the UK. 7am isnt that early to be up, is it?

What about 2 AM for chat then???
Shame on you Bee Zed re the RAH capacity
You can find it on the net
from:- http://www.royalalberthall.com/rah/t...conditions.jsp
Ordinary Let maximum capacity: 3,901
Exclusive Let maximum capacity: 5,222
and here are a few of them

In doing a google image search for RAH pix I discovered that
amazingly another musical genius appeared on that hallowed stage:-

Right. From the sound of his voice, I'd say the frog was in his pants.
