Looks identical to the New Brunswick show.

John, my dear friend, I am afraid that you have your posts or nights mixed up. That is not the set list from Concord, but perhaps Burlington?
Notably missing is the melting Make Way for the Lady. But you are correct that he had to start over on Let It Ride.
Apologies everybody I screwed up monumentally there
Yes it was in fact the New Bunswick set list
The reason was that knowing tht all 3 setlists were very similar I had pasted the NB setlist into a new wordpad document with the intention of
rearranging the 27 songs to suit the Concord setlist, then in my haste to post it I forgot to go back and edit the list
This I have now done so the corrected list is:-
1 Triangle
2 Cotton Jenny
3 14 Karat Gold
4 Never Too Close
5 Shadows
6 Beautiful
7 In my fashion
8 Make Way For The Lady
9 Blackberry Wine
10 Carefree Highway
11 Hangdog Hotel Room
12 Alberta Bound
13 Sundown
14 The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald
intermission
15 Sit Down Young Strange
16 Let It Ride (incomplete)
17 Let It Ride (complete and magnificent)
18 Clouds Of Loneliness.
19 A Painter Passing Though
20 If You Could Read My Mind
21 Waiting For You
Medley
22 Spanish Moss
23 Don Quixote
24 Canadian Railroad Trilogy
25 Baby Step Back
26 Restless
27 Old Dan's Records
encore
28 Early Morning Rain
the main comment I have to make was that unusually Gord had got most of the way through Let It Ride
then came to a halt saying "I forgot where I was"
whereupon the consumate and conscientious perfectionist that Gord is started the song from the beginning!!
Two for the price of one!
I have to say that I was delighted, as this is one of the two songs I like the most in concert (along with "Restless")
and I would be highly entertained if Gord chose to spend the whole concert claiming to "know a man from Windsor who went to Detroit every night"
Anyway it was more fantastic comradeship with Diane and her family and Jenney and Skip(per) Vard
that included a quite splendid pre concert dinner
Diane's husband had been recommended to a restaurant called "The Common Man", and Diane redily concurred when she discovered that on the menu was" Rainbow Trout" and "Maple Leaf Duck"
Me?? I went for the "Mixed Grill" a rarity over here but staple fare in the UK.
I had a Crab Cake a Chicken Piece and a very nice, but necessarily small, Fillet Mignon
