I was there, and Char didn't even know me.....

We were assembled at the doors, it seemed to be late and we were wondering why the doors weren't opened. Then somebody came out and said the concert was cancelled as Mr. Lightfoot was ill or not well. Just some mumblings in the crowd, nobody thought too much about it I don't think. I went back to the hotel, and the next morning there were films of Gord being taken from the Flight For Life into the Hamilton Hospital. Someone was bagging him so I knew that it was serious or he would not have been intubated. He was unconscious of course. Rick made a statement later that day, and then I flew back to Colorado and didn't hear anything more. I finally found corfid again - I was not a member at that time, just a lurker and a rare one so it was difficult to find the site again. It was a worrisome time, that is for sure.
