I don't see it happening either..and that is beyond ridiculous..

hell - Ronnie Hawkins had his 60th at Massey with Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Levon Helms, Jeff Healey, Gowan and many other folks. It was recorded and televised! BUT Ronnie is a much more "Look at ME" type of personality..

Perhaps Gordon may have a change of heart about being the centre of attention for such an auspicious occasion as his 70th..I know that the CBC Life and Times programme told me several years ago they've tried to get him to agree to do his story but have never been allowed..He's 'elusive' is the term I think they used..
