Default Re: CD Launch @ Indigo Books-pics and video

Hi Everyone - Just though I'd share my time on Monday evening. What an amazing night!! I arrived (slightly wet) at the Indigo around 3 pm to scope it out. As Char mentioned the weather in Toronto was not very nice. Other then the signs outside the store and the new CD on the shelves it was quiet.

Somewhere around 5:15 a line started to form, and people were in the check out lines with their new cd.

It was an unusual feeling, being a huge fan of Gord’s music for years and now just a couple hours away from meeting him.

I stood in line for a bit and chatted with the other fans; it’s always great to talk Lightfoot to pass the time.

When Char got there we met up and got our place in the line. It was great to see you again and catch up.

We had great seats close to the small stage they had set up. The interview was interesting, some of the questions were quite dated and ones everyone here has heard Gordon answer a million times. They opened it up to questions from the floor and those questions proved to be more interesting and in line with the evening.

Gord looked so relaxed and some of his answers had us all laughing, you’ll see these on the videos posted.

After the interview we went up by row to get our CD covers signed and a chance to say a few words. The moment did not disappoint. I told him that when I’m out in the car with my 14 month old son I play his music. He smiled and said to me “When he grows up and plays the guitar make sure he puts the Capo in the 2nd position” I laughed and told him I would make sure of it.

I also saw Rick Haynes walking thought the aisles looking at books. I cornered him and he graciously signed my CD as well. We had a quick chat and he thanked me for supporting their Music.

On the way home, as Char mentioned we missed our subway stop and almost ended up at Queen’s Park (Ontario Parliament buildings) hahaha


Overall a great night and one I’ll never forget. Here are some more pictures.
