Default Gordon Lightfoot - Waukegan - Genessee Theatre

I live in Chicago, but grew up in Detroit. The first time I saw Gordon Lighfoot I was 12. My baby-sitter took me to see him at a club called 'The Crow's Nest'. So I guess you could call me a long-time fan. Throughout my teens, twenties, and thrities, I saw Lightfoot ALOT. As the years went by I sort of lost track, occassionally listening to a favorite, but generally letting life get in the way.

Earlier this week I was looking for something to do. Hadn't been to a concert in years, and started checking things out at TicketMaster. Bought a ticket to see Ray Davies at the Chicago Theatre on Tuesday, then noticed that Lightfoot was playing in Waukegan. Damn! I haven't seen Gordo in a long time! I'd heard about his health problems, had kept up with his releases, but to see him live? For sure.

All I can say it was one of the finest moments in music I have experienced in a long time. Such a great thing to see Lightfoot still touring. If he's coming to your area, don't miss it.

Welcome cep1119,

Hope you will stick around. The people here are wonderful and really care a lot about music. Especially Gordon's and his Lightfoot orchestra's music.
