After four concerts this year, I recently sat down and listed all the GL concerts I have attended. My first concert was April 27, 1979 in Minneapolis. Thanks to the set lists I have given Wayne Francis over the years and now posted on lightfoot.ca, I was able to total the concerts.

My total is now: 35, in places ranging from the Twin Cities to Toronto to Sault St. Marie. I always snicker a little when I listen to the Harmony album and hear myself clapping as "Shellfish" and the "No Hotel" were performed during the three concerts I attended there in May 2001.

Boy, I have had fun this past 28 1/2 years. I look forward to concert # 36 and beyond. Would really appreciate if Gord would put out the long-rumored CD of Massey Hall recordings from throughout the years. That would be the perfect gift to go along with all these memories.
