Hi Folks:
I have noticed a number of recent playlists featuring Gord Lightfoot's
music and some queries about his health. After several months in a
Hamilton-area hospital Gord went home this week to continue his
recovery. Although details are scarce (his family and close friends
understandably are keeping most information on his condition private),
it does appear that Gord is on the road to recovery. According to
Canadian press releases no timetable has been set for Gord's return to
the concert stage.
In January 2003, a number of Canadian folk artists will be celebrating
Gordon Lightfoot's music with a series of tribute concerts . One
concert in Ottawa (Jan. 10) and two concerts in Toronto (Jan. 11/12)
will feature Katherine Wheatley, Aengus Finnan, Valdy, Hart Rouge,
Rick Fines, Jory Nash, Dan Kershaw, Terry Tufts, Ian Tamblyn, John
McDermott, Connie Kaldor, Dave Matheson, Jason Fowler, Tom Leighton,
Anne Lindsay, George Koller & Dick Van Raadshooven, plus a few
surprise guests. The concerts have been dubbed "The Way We Feel".
All the best this holiday season to members of Folkdj-l.
