Thank you, Seafarer John, for another excellent Gord Road Trip report. Considering the Jul19 and Jul20 venues were 200 miles apart (3-and-a-half hours by car) and therefore not many people would have attended both, I found it interesting that only 18 of the 27 Davenport songs were performed on the following night. I suggest that after 1-and-a-half years of COVID preventing concerts (and still threatening future concerts) and being 82 years old, Gord may be in a hurry to perform as much of his repertoire as possible.
