Geeze James - that seems so long ago. I thought I was there all alone with no other "net people' and then there you were!
lol

It's so wonderful that the popularity of the shows has continued to be so strong. For professional artists to come together and individually celebrate the music of Lightfoot in their own unique way with such respect and love touches me deeply every year. The shows have introduced me and many others to so dozens of new artists who have successful careers of their own and who I may have never heard of! I will be forever thankful to have their music in my life.

The greatest thing of all for the shows, performers and producers and which makes them stand out above all other "tribute" performers/bands from long ago and present day, is that they have been endorsed, acknowledged and attended by Lightfoot himself. The fact that he got up and sang this past January is testament to how he feels about these yearly celebrations.

THAT makes these shows unique and one of a kind for sure.
