Wonderful show at the Keswick on Sunday, Mother's Day (and my birthday). The venue was perfect and Gord told the crowd that he loved to play the place. He, and the band, looked great, were spot on, full of energy and FUNNY (nobody ever told me he was funny!)Two long sets split by an intermission (so the beer drinkers wouldn't explode?, the lines to the restroom were a hoot!!!) I saw at least two people writing set lists and I hope someone posts it. I was too blown away to write, sorry! He did three of the new songs, in a row, Shellfish, NO Hotel, and "the one about Family?" I hope they make it to a CD soon, they were very good! If I recall correctly he ended the show with Old Dan's Records and the encore was Early Morning Rain. The crowd was very fired up, quite impressive, and thought he could be coaxed into a second encore and HE did come out and bow again but waved goodbye and that was it. He should be in great form for the Birchmere and Massey - I hope everyone has as good a time as my wife and I had last night. (There was quite a crowd waiting for him to come out so we skipped that but I hope someone has a report.)
