Wow! What a difference a day makes. Tonight's concert was great. The energy was high, Gordon's voice was very strong throughout, the band was prominent, but Gordon commanded the stage in every way. People always ask me how I can stand to see the same concert two or three nights in a row, and I always say because it is always different every night. But never more so than tonight. The majority of the tunes were the same as last night, although there were some excellent additions like Minstrel of the Dawn and Spanish Moss, but the overall effect was startling compared to Ithaca. Perhaps it was the venue? In any case, the audience appreciated the evening from start to finish, many of their wishes that they were calling out were granted, and all is well.
