Re: Video: Concert Setup, Oklahoma City, 2010-08-16

Not always does all this equipment have to be set up, some venues already have almost everything permanently set up and they just plug into it.

Kimberly, I put a bid in on these, but it says reserve isn't met. If you don't mind, can you tell me what is your reserve on these? Also these are not all that were made, as they also printed the 3...

Re: Terry Clements Guitar?

I kind of remember that some time back Terry told me they had paid around $2400 for the guitars, I think that was for each of them, but of course my old age may have sunk in and distorted that.

Re: ANOTHER surprise from Gordon Lightfoot !!!

Ok, place your bets, will he sing happy birthday to Charlene or not? Also will he sing her favorite song? I would place a buck on each that he will.

Re: Fort Pierce

The Ridgefield isn't a great place, but it does pretty good for what it is. Yes, a old auditorium, but it does have decent sound there. I have seen Brandi Carlile and Jonatha Brooke there and Brandi...

Re: To Technical?

I am almost sure he uses a Shure 58, most performers do, and it would fit his voice range just fine. On his strings, they can be so cruticial to a great sound. Back around 1980, I had put some new...

Re: Anne Murray calls memoir 'painful'

As some of you, or all of you know, Gordons drummer Barry Keane is her studio drummer on most all her LPs and Cds. I was wondering if there is mention of him in the book?

Re: Video: Gordon Bonked in Head by Adoring Fan

Many sports celebs have contracts which will not allow them to sign memorabelia autographs unless at a signing show/event. Likely Elway has one of these contracts.

Re: GL's guitar's
