Gord's voice wasn't shaking and it was very steady. No noticable sweat and his hands were steady too. If he was extremely nervous, he sure knows how to hide it well. I actually thought he looked rather confident. Most people who don't normally do public speaking will start out a little nervous but as they get going, really start to relax and have fun. I think this was the case with Lightfoot on this night.

Also think that Dylan was funny. I take him as just another confident celebrity who's not afraid to do his own thing. He said some kinds words about Lightfoot and even invited Gordon somewhere right before Lightfoot started to talk. Still, I see not a thing wrong with anything Dylan said or did. He actually seemed like he was in a good mood and enjoying the occasion!

My favorite parts are when Lightfoot thanks his mom for "getting me into this crazy business in the first place" and then kind of does this thing with his head, nobody laughed but him and then said "o-o-o-kay".

The second is when he talks about Cathy Coonley and his son who is younger, "quite a bit younger I might ad" and then looks up, raises his eyebrows and says "well, whatever." Never knew what happened down below but it was funny nonetheless.
