It's almost here folks. That big big event that all Lightfoot fans yearn for. Attending a Gordon Lightfoot concert in Massey Hall. It sure is a great feeling seeing familiar faces once again and meeting new fans. Just a note that might help folks who are coming into town on flights. It's very reasonable to travel to most parts of Toronto on public transit. From the Toronto (Pearson) Airport for $2.75 you can get to the downtown area quite easily. If you are staying in the Delta Chelsea Hotel, where most folks stay, you would take the bus (Airport Rocket) it's called and it leaves from all three terminals regularly. The bus will take you into the "Kipling" subway station where you would board the train and get off at the "Yonge" station. (about 20 minutes) From there you take the southbound train to the "College" station (less than 5 minutes) where you get off the train and walk a short distance south on Yonge St. to Gerrard St. where the hotel is located. Maps of the subway routes are posted on all trains and are quite easy to follow. The Toronto folks are very helpful with giving directions so don't be afraid to ask when in doubt. It's helps when you travel light. See you there and a safe trip for us all. Cheers, Ron J.
