Well, looks like I'll just miss you! I'll be in Toledo on 6/10/08! Enjoy your concerts, DSR! :)

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Thank you Moosedog,

You are always so positive. Maybe we will meet up later in the year. Have a great time in Toledo. :)

I guess I was a bit over enthusiastic so I posted it twice. oops

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hi DSR,

I think I remember you saying that y'all eat after shows, eh? (country-Canadian that phrase). There will be a few of us meeting for dinner before the Glenside show hopefully at Athena's (Greek joint). Intermission might be a good time to get a corfid picture. I work the next day so we'll be out of there like greased lightning. As far as everyone else scheduled there for that show I'll let them speak for themselves, LOL. We'll be in seats DD 15 & 17.
At one time I tried to get corfid members to post seat numbers and pictures before shows before I was met wth stoney silence...

Bill :)

WE have to skip Wolf Trap this year but I believe ELizabeth will be there.

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Have a great time DSR as I know you will. An article should be written about you in some newspaper for the number of Gordon Lightfoot concerts that you attend, and all the travelling you do to get to these shows. :cool:

I remember when The Grateful Deads would go on tour, they had those "DEADHEADS" that would follow them everywhere, really devoted fans... :headbang:

There was an article in the paper down here recently about this Bob Dylan fan that does just what you do, except I think he had seen him 25 times in all... You do that in almost one year. Really Amazing to me DSR ! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

lol:)

I remember going to a blue rodeo concert (one of several) at Massey and sitting in the upper balcony (as pam said, it is pretty neat to perch way up there), anyhow, at a discussion forum many were posting their seat locations and what they would be wearing, etc

anyhow, I printed out a little seat location cheat sheet before leaving for the show and as I sat up there before the show I did a detail survey...I felt like a sniper actually, lol...anyhow, at intermission it was fun to go up and startle a few with a fashionable Massey hello:)

hey, have a great time dsr, kerstin, moose, bill! you guys are troopers, reminds me of reading of Diane and Jenney's or Char's trekking a few years back, or the Fowles's journey along the GL gig trail earlier in the year....make sure you drop some popcorn along the way so you can find your way back home:)

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

I am so happy for you! :biggrin: I guess I'll have to wait until October (Cerritos - I hope), but it's really cool :cool: to know that there are other Lightheads out there getting to see The Man (and The Band). If you talk to him, please tell him Hi from Ann in Portland (he probably won't know who you mean but that's okay). Terry might - I gave him an Oregon-shaped magnet to remind them. ;)

But anyway (as I seem to say a lot these days), have a super time! I'll be anxious to hear about your adventures.:)

Take care:)

LOL - I had quite a few of those moments of folks coming up to me at Massey and introducing themselves..even at the pub it happened! it's nice that we connect like we do..it may be brief but it's nice just the same..

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Moosedog,

Any chance of a concert or two in your furture for September?

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

DSR, I'm planning on attending both Michigan shows. :) Joliet is also a remote possibility. Will you be at any of those?

Vickie

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

:) :biggrin: :clap:

Hi Vickie,

I look forward to seeing you at all three concerts. At least one of my sisters will be with us maybe two. I searching for airfare today. Have a wonderful weekend.

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Yahoooooo, DSR! :) Finally we'll get to meet up! :)

Vickie

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

I'll be in Williamsport. Front row, seat 104! Can't wait!

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Now that's what I'm talking about ! Useful info for people who might actually want to seek each other out. Nice seat by the way. Have fun !

Bill :)

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hi Frkmry,

Ken and I are in the pit seats 10&11. We will look for you before the concert starts. :)

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Alrighty! I'll be looking for you too!

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Don't worry, you won't miss me. We will be front row center and I will be wearing a lavender jacket that screams Gordon Lightfoot all over.


Bill, I don't know where our seats are yet. I will find you before the show starts. I will have a small surprise for you each.

Anyone else want to commit? :biggrin:

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Is there any corfid person going to Wolftrap that wants to say hello before the concert? :cool: :) :biggrin:

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hello my favorite Podunklander,

You made me smile and blush. Thank you for your very kind words. When you have a chance try to figure out where you are meeting us in September. :biggrin:

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

I really think Miss Podunklander needs to attend the Michigan concerts! :)

Vickie

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

I agree with that. Then she could meet my sisters, Kathy and Kerstin. I don't think Podunklalnder has met them yet. Poor (or lucky ) Gordon, here we come.

:biggrin: :clap: :clap: :biggrin:

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

I will also be at both Massachusetts shows and I would love to meet other confid people.I was trying to arrange to see the Michigan shows, but the ridiculous amount of hours and money to fly there, made it impossible. I hope to meet many others there! :) Sharon

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

DSR, I remember there were 2 couples backstage at the Mohegan Sun Concert 2 years ago, and me. I remember they were following Gordon and the concerts at the time. I was just wondering if it was you?

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hello John,

Sorry to say that was not me. Maybe we will meet this year during GordQuest 2008.

Have a wonderful weekend.

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Williamsport was great! Gordon's voice was SO much stronger than it was when I saw him three years ago at the Keswick Theater. It was great to meet DSR. Thank you so much for the pin. Hopefully we will meet again. Mary

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

A big hello to all my Lighthead friends. I was not sure where to put this post so I am hoping here is okay. My sisters and I were planning to see quite a few concerts in September. We were really looking forward to meeting some of you.

I could hold off my knee surgery no longer. I had complete knee replacement a little over 3 weeks ago. The doctor said it was almost an ememgency and I could not wait. Every year I tell myself I will have it done when the touring is over and I never do. Gordon told me last year to have it done. Guess I should have listened to him.

Anyway, Kerstin, Kathy, Ken and I hope those of you seeing concerts this month have a wonderful time. We will be back on the tour in October and hope to meet some of you then. :clap: :biggrin: :clap:

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hi DSR !

Really is nice to hear from you, "PLEASE" say hi to my cyber space friend: Kerstin which we did not hear from her much for a while now...

I hope everything is OK with you, and all of your sisters as you call them !!! :biggrin: :)

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hi DSR,
I hope you have a wonderful time at the concerts.
I'm sorry Gordon hurt your knee and I hope it is much better now.
(just kiddin' - about him hurting your knee ya know.)

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR,Kathy,Kerstin and Ken
 

Hello from us to you.

We are on a two week count down. The starting point is Stockton and we will leave the tour after San Diego. Thank you to all who wrote reviews. We will try to do the same. Not good at the set list though, when the music starts that is all we hear and think about. The people who give us those set lists are totally wonderful. We have tried and can not keep up.

If you are attending any of the concerts we will be at and want to meet, please send me a PM. I will have a small special momento for you.

If you want to meet Borderstone also let me know because he will be joining our group in Agoura Hills and San Diego.

Best wishes to all and to all a Gord night. :)

DSR, Kerstin and Kathy

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hello there,

I'm looking forward to seeing you at Cerritos (16 days and counting:biggrin:). I'm not sure how I'll find you but I will! ;)

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hi mandoann,

Don't be concerned Ann, we will meet. You will also meet my sisters (Kathy and Kerstin). I will be there with my mom, wonderful husband and The Rez, too. :)

See you very soon. :biggrin:

DSR

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.

Not nervous about the flght (yet) but am looking forward to it.

Also going to be trying to get a ticket to the Phoenix show as well. ;)

Re: GordQuest 2008 continues for DSR and Ken.
 

Hey Borderstone,

It won't be long now. We are ready for you. Don't be worried about the plane ride. It will be over before you know it and "poof", you will be in California. See you soon. :)
