Gordon Lightfoot's voice was extremely good, at least compared to the July appearance in Manhattan. He wished the crowd a good Veteran's Day. He mentioned that he was going to perform "Drink Yer Glasses Empty" as sort of a tribute to Veteran's Day, and mentioned his Canadian backgroiund.

When he sang "Drink Yer Glasses Empty" he mentioned writing it in conjunction with Desert Storm, and I suppose analogizing it to being "back in '39 when (he) was one year old." That of course was a few months after the start of World War II. A nice touch.I suppose one of things I like about Gord is that he seems to be a history buff; just like I am.

RICK: and appropriately last nite, Gordon opened the second set with `Drink Yer Glasses Empty`, to remind us.

RICK: Now, on November 11, our thoughts are about veterans while we do our concert at the Ridgefield Playhouse here in western Connecticut, where we last appeared in June 2010. This is a beautiful part of the country.

This place does not allow pictures so Ricks stage picture from the side is the only performance picture. Sold out show and it was a good one.
