Re: CRYSTAL GAYLE and Ribbon of Darkness on her new LP

Modern country I don't care much for , but this leans more retro to my ears, so I have no issues with it. I'd be much more bothered if it was a Country Rap version!

Re: INJURY and CONCERT postponement news

Well, Gord has always been a rather upstanding performer. I WANT Gord to be outstanding, and not some stool pigeon.

Re: Tarrytown, NY.-May 17,2019

When looking at modern day set-lists, I sometimes flash back to my reaction to setlists in the pre-internet age. Great to see Gordie still covering so many nice "album tracks" - along with a bit...

Re: What will Gord's new songs be about?

As for song topics, while those are all good suspects to expect, Myself, I'm not sure if I want them to be about them. I think Gord does best when he ranges further.

Re: Wrong Version of EMR Played.

As I said above, if you prefer subsequent derivatives, as long as you still have a nod towards the originals I find no issue. Really they have all have their specific merits.

Re: Cranberries singer goodbye

Ugh, really? I posted above, after reading a handful of vague reports that said nothing like that. Still given her history I suppose that is not to be too terribly unexpected.
