Playing Gord

[Big Toe]

Here I am, my first live gig, playing Lightfoot.

Here's my Dad.

Quite a musical family. Is that your mom beside you?

DMD, get that adolescent mind out of the gutter. You know darned well she's too young to be his mother.

What song were you playing, Big Toe?

My Mum? It is my sister.

We were doing the 'Wreck of thr ER' my favourite Gordon Lightfoot song.

I couldn't tell. How long ago was this? Looks hard.

You certainly captured my attention.
Is that a D18 by chance?
Please share with me what you used to amplify
the rich sound of the guitar. I would like
to also play his music in a more serious
"stage" situation. What frustrations, and, more importantly; what inner satisfaction
did you experience from playing his songs on stage in front of an audience?
Thanks. . . .

I would also like to know what type of Amplification Big Toe uses,and that does look like it could be a D-18.I can tell You that the Martin(Fishman)thinline gold plus pickup system does an outstanding job,but unless you opt to add an external control for volume,bass,treble,etc.,you have to control it through your amp.But as far as recreating the true acoustics,it does the job quite well..

How old are you? How long ago was this? You look pretty young(like me)

I am also female, by the way, and i do like playing the guitar, but I don't perform or anything.
