My first Lightfoot concert was August 31, 2000 at Humphrey's By The Bay in San Diego, CA. It was memorable for many reasons.
First, of course, it was Gordon Lightfoot - you'd think that would be enough
but I came from NH to see this show and fell so in love with San Diego that I moved out here ten months later. Plus I met a few folks who I first came to know right here on this message board - Betty, Judy, and Leslie. It also gave me the chance to meet someone else I had come to know through a Yahoo list for another artist. He has since become someone very special to me. To top it all, I went backstage and actually met and spoke with Gord and the other band members.
All of that combined with the fact that Humphrey's is just an exquisit place to see a concert, it's not surprising that even though I've seen Gord twice since then (including Massey Hall), that concert will probably always have a special little spot all it's own in my heart.
