I first saw Gordon in Detroit...possibly the late 60's (I lost some brain cells between then and the 80's) It was at U of D, maybe the gym...Just folding chairs, Gord and Guitar and heaven! Can't recall not one song, but I was hooked from then on. I probably saw him in concert 10 more times since then. The most memorable concert was in the early 70's...in Detroit also. It was a World Hunger Benefit-Harry Chapin, John Denver, James Taylor and GL. No bands...just guitars. They sang alone and did duets. Awesome! I'm hoping he'll add a Michigan stop to his tour this year. Everything else is too far.
