Hello all, I used to be known as Reno Rick but now I am Bend Rick. I recently moved from Reno, Nevada to Bend, Oregon. Reno was one of Gordon's favorite haunts, so I'll miss his shows there; now I'm wondering where I can see him in Oregon. Hopefully he tours in Portland?

Hi Rick,

Gordon played in Portland at Schnitzer Concert Hall on Aug. 25th this year. He also played in Washington just a few hours drive from Portland.

Best of luck to you in your new home town.

Any members in Oregon?

Hi Rick
long time no see in the chat room on a Friday.
I think that one of the more prominent members of the on-line Lighfoot community has to be another Rik (sans the "c")
I am referring to Rik Stevens who I believe still resides in Portland OR and who many moons ago created a Lightfoot tribute site at
http://www.europa.com/~random7/
which is still going albeit nothing has changed for yonks and a few of the links appear to be broken
Most importently in 1998 Rik added a chat room facility to his site
the link for that still functions so on page
http://www.europa.com/~random7/chat.htm
you will find a link to my chat page because I took it over when his original chatroom hosting outfit gave up the struggle with internet vandals a couple of years or so ago
I had seen his December 1998 Newsgroup announcement at :-
http://groups.google.com/group/alt.music.lightfoot/msg/b8b3333e53478c13
in early 1999 and started attending sometime in May and met a wonderful group including at that time my future wife Susan and
the redoubtable Jenney Rivard, both of whom I was to meet in Toronto the following November

Jenney is sitting extreme right (as you look at this picture) in Orillia with me behind her and Susan a little to my right
I think Rik is possibly still engrossed either in playing an online game or seriously courting because although he fairly often came into chat on a Friday last year it is now many months since he met a new love and has not been seen since.
I therefore think that it would be a very good idea if you could contact him and possibly arrange to meet up with him
his email address is (or was last time I heard)
random7@europa.com
Just tell him John sent you!!
