Long River,

Yes I was also there in 2001 but I did not try for pictures or autographs that year so I wouldn't be in any pictures except for an audience shot. It was in 2002, the year I call the "corfid summit", that I actually met a bunch of the folks who post here. jbt and his sister lavender(aka formerlylavender) insisted that they knew exactly when he would be coming into the alley. (true) and that I just had to be politely aggressive (true) but I was hanging back and jbt sort of shoved me up front (true) which is when Gord signed the program and posed for the picture. I was hoping to learn from the other folks who post here how to get on the backstage list for 2003 but alas that was not in the cards. But now that he's on the mend anything is possible. But at this point distance is no longer a question. If he is playing and I can get tickets I'll travel anywhere to see him again.
