I'm still buzzing from the Detroit show....Gordon spoke to me! I was in the 2nd row of the orchestra pit, right in front of him....during the applause for 'Don Quixote' I yelled for 'Pony Man'....at first I thought he didn't hear, but he stood up, looked at me and said: "Did you say Pony Man"? I said "Yes, sir!", and he said they'd try to fit it in, and sure enough, as they walked onstage to start the second set, he motioned to me and said "Pony Man, right??" and played the tune. I don't know if he already planned to play it, but I'll never forget the great gesture................Jam
