Summer side of life( if thats the correct title)Love Love Love, this Canadian icons music, he doesnt get enough recognition.Once had tickets to a classic Roy Thomson hall show,(GL's annual venue), my son was sick, and before show,I called home , Babysitter said he coughed,being a new parent I was concerned,but he was fine. I "scalped" tickets at cost minutes before show started to two teens(I was pleased the younger generation was interested!)Got home and my son WAS fine.In honest retrospect,I regret missing Gord.Every year, I tell my wife We need to see GL. But things come up, Just like life, maybe he wont be missed until he's passed, and that would be a true shame.When he was ill recently, my heart dropped, not because I didnt see him in concert, but because it could be the lost of a true musical artist, as opposed to the formulated genre of music in todays market is prevailant.Gordie stay well,Your a maple in a (rare) Canadian Hurrican! My Your Lord Bless you,always a fan , in my Canadian heart your there. RB
