Who else besides Boarderstone and me are counting the days before they see Gordon in concert this month? :D It is so hard to believe another year has passed. I am looking forward to hopefully meeting some of you this year. :) :)

Moosedog 01-02-2007 11:17 AM

Have fun! :) As for me, I'm just hoping some additional dates get added to that concert schedule.

Dream Street Rose 01-02-2007 06:09 PM

I will think positive thoughts that the whole year is scheduled soon. If I hear anything I will let you know.

Borderstone 01-02-2007 07:56 PM

The whole year? Let's not tire the guy out for pete's sake! :eek: :D

He does need to rest up after this tour is over,I feel. He played a lot of dates last year,especially the Massey shows. ;)

Yep...a good long rest,& then a new CD. :D

Dream Street Rose 01-02-2007 08:55 PM

I didn't mean every single day. I want him to be healthy and be around for a lot of years to come too. :D

Borderstone 01-03-2007 08:14 PM

Speaking of counting the days....
25 to go!!! :D Yes!! :cool:

Can't wait until that "Sunday Concert" ;)

Maybe he'll do "Spin-Spin" ? :)

Dream Street Rose 01-03-2007 09:13 PM

Only 23 more days until the first concert in Nevada. Is anyone from this group going?

Will anybody be in Anaheim Jan.31? I would really like to put a face with a name. :D :) :)

hiway songs 01-04-2007 02:05 AM

We're counting the days as well. We'll be attending the Mesquite, NV concert on the 27th.

Moosedog 01-05-2007 08:50 AM

Yahoo, a few more dates have been added to the schedule! :) Gotta get him to Michigan though! :cool:

Vickie

Dream Street Rose 01-05-2007 02:21 PM

Moosedog,
Good luck getting to see Gordon in Michigan.

Alright hiway songs only 22 days for you.

Anyone else on a Lightfoot concert count down? :) :) :D

brink- 01-05-2007 07:30 PM

I am going to the Texas shows, maybe Missouri too.

Dream Street Rose 01-05-2007 10:22 PM

Good to hear brink. It would be great if someone from this group could be at every concert.

:cool: :cool:

Thanks, but no big deal if he doesn't get here. I live in the middle of nowhere, so never really expect him to appear in this area. I always travel to see him, so likely will end up doing the same at least a couple of times this year.

01/07/'07:
Just poppin' in to say.....exactly 3 weeks and counting!!! :D Yay!!! :cool:

Dream Street Rose 01-07-2007 07:59 PM

Hello Borderstone,
I'm smiling for you. I hope you have a good seat and nobody's camera is flashing and making sounds so you can hear. :)

I hope you all have a good week.

I'll cover Tucson, AZ on Jan. 29th........

Dream Street Rose 01-08-2007 03:48 AM

Good to hear RMD. :)

Okay, let's hear from other luck ticket holders.

Borderstone, have a good week. :)

Borderstone 01-18-2007 07:10 PM

Hey Dream Street Rose! :) You bet I have a good seat! ;) (A rarity in my usual concert going experiences).

I have a 4th row seat! Yeah baby! :D If I could have gotten to Ticketmaster a week sooner (and had the $$) I could've possibly had a 1st row,something I've never had!

Unless you count standing in a crowd practically smushed up against a stage first row. :rolleyes: (Bryan Adams show 1985)

Oh and yes....T minus 10 days & counting!! :cool:

Boy,how did 5 months go so fast? :eek:

Patti 01-20-2007 12:47 PM

I can't afford to go to a concert. He can come over to my house if he wants. :D

Dream Street Rose 01-20-2007 03:09 PM

Hi Borderstone,

Fourth row sounds like a winner to me. I am under 5 feet tall(or short), so I try to get front row or a level higher than the stage. :)
The first concert we are going to in Anaheim I was lucky enough to get seats in a "special" area that is suppose to be great seating. I have never been there so I will find out soon. :D

I bought Gordon's book "I Wish You Good Spaces", on EBay last year so I am taking that for him to sign. Great addition to my Lightfoot collection.

Enjoy the weekend and please let me know how excited you are as the concert approches. :) :)

Borderstone 01-20-2007 07:50 PM

DSR! You're the one who beat me out of the book!! :eek:

Just kiddin'!! :D

Have fun in Anaheim! :)

Last one before the show folks....One week,1 day and about 2 to 3 hours until he hits the stage at the Orpheum!! :cool:

Dream Street Rose 01-20-2007 09:51 PM

Hey Borderstone,

Thanks for the laugh. :D You have a good sense of humor.

:) :) :) :)

I'll ask one more time. Will anyone besides my husband and me be at any of the California concerts in Jan. or Feb.????

RM 01-21-2007 01:21 AM

That's great, when I was in Tucson in October I was telling my Uncle that he was coming down. Uncle Jack and his wife both said that they really doubted that there were many, if any, Gord fans in the Tucson area. Glad to hear it is sold out.

I must admit I also shared those doubts, to the point where I wondered if the event might be canceled due to lack of sales. I see two possibilities here :

1) There are more folks with good taste around here than I imagined

or

2)With the aging of our population, a surprising number of people have acquired the same wisdom I possessed 30+ years ago.

If anyone wants to go to Phoenix there are 2 tickets on EBAY item #23007821360. :) Kind of a last minute thing if you were not planning to go but sometimes those work out the best.

Just thought I would share. :D

Gitchigumee 01-22-2007 02:18 PM

Closest concert date to me, thus far in 2007, is Kansas City, MO, in June. Now if only he could get a teeny bit closer to where I live. It would be an 8 hour drive to Kansas City. Hmm...

Borderstone 01-23-2007 05:59 PM

One question before Sunday's show,who "actually" is going to the Phoenix show?

I may make a sign saying Borderstone on it so other can recognize me.
(Unless you remember my photo on here that well! :D )

Gotta get through 4 more workdays first! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Dream Street Rose 01-24-2007 02:27 AM

Hi Borderstone,

I think I am as excited for you as I am for me. :D If I were going to be in Phoenix I sure would look for your sign. :) Four days will go quickly.

Borderstone 01-24-2007 08:09 PM

If you could go...wouldya be mah date? :D :redface:

The Rez 01-24-2007 10:54 PM

Howdy Y'all,

Oooops, I didn't notice this topic when I tossed in my Mouse House of Bluze thing. Sorry!

Livinging in Those Senior Moments, would you please clarify for Old Rez whose going to The Mouse House . . . ?

I can't go to the other SoCal concerts do to Cargiving duties w/ Mama. But, very thankful to be able to squish in to see Gord in Anaheim on 31 Jan.

"Who else," he asks [ducking tomatoes lovingly tossed twd my keen awareness]

I am one excited Li'l Boy . . . sorta

Rez

Dream Street Rose 01-25-2007 03:38 AM

Oh Borderstone-Borderstone,

You got me to laugh twice in one week. :) :) I really hope the next time we stop in Phoenix on our way to Jerome or Lakeside-Pinetop(both in AZ), I can meet you. I still feel cautious about posting but you are definately bringing me out of my shell. :D :) :cool: The answer to your question is another question. :confused: Who wouldn't?? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

How many more days? :eek:

Dream Street Rose 01-25-2007 03:54 AM

Attention, attention calling The Rez.
Come in Rez, do you read me??

I will be the one upstairs(where I hope you are too), holding the sign saying Borderstone.
:confused: Only kidding about the sign.

Maybe we could meet before the concert. My husband and I only live about 30 minutes away so it is an easy trip for us.

Borderstone, come join us. You can sit on my lap and then we can have our picture taken with The Man together. ;)

Borderstone 01-26-2007 07:21 PM

Well Rose,I wont be hard to spot! If you've ever seen my photo on here in the thread,"Wanted:Dead or Alive,Borderstone At last Breaks Cover",you'll know exactly what and or who to look for. ;)

Much like last time,I'll be making a day of it. heck,I'll be downtown by 12pm! :eek: At the downtown library first of course & maybe the nearest record store....I believe there's ah....1? :D LOL!

Don' worry,you'll also see my sign. # (No! No! not that sign!! :rolleyes: )

LOL! :D

patybear 01-26-2007 07:39 PM

Hey Patti:
I can't really afford to go to a concert either.Where are you located? Maybe Gordon can stop at my place after he goes to yours,lol.
patybear

brink- 01-27-2007 02:00 PM

B Buddy,
Have a great time tomorrow. We want to hear all about it, you have great seats. I don't know what they think about cameras there, but if you don't use flash you could probably get a few goods ones for your scrapbook.

Paul Farnham 01-27-2007 02:50 PM

I got Harrisburg PA in April."Alinharrisburg" (of course) will be there as well.

OK,Patybear,I'll just give him some coffee. I'm located in WI, so he'll probably be pretty hungry once he gets to your house,lol.

Borderstone 01-27-2007 07:08 PM

It's 5pm on Jan. 27th and Rose was right,those 4 workdays went quick! :eek: It is now,just over 26 hours until showtime! :)

I have to still choose what LPs I'd like autographed & I have to buy a disposable camera.
(Hopefully I don't get in a hurry and buy a disposable razor! LOL!! :D ) I don't own a "real" camera.

I'm makin' a day of it,so I may stop in the downtown branch library tomorrow. Monday I'll give you guys the full scoop! ;) A lot of work for one show,I mean...I'm missing "The Simpsons" for this!! :eek: (Just kidding! :D )

I still wonder,where did four years,5 months & 22 days since the last show go? :confused:

Dream Street Rose 01-27-2007 08:11 PM

Hey Borderstone, you are a cutie pie. Lucky for you I am a happily married woman. If you want to see what I look like go to my profile and go to my web site.

Now is the time for you to relish every moment before the concert because as we know it is over in a blink of an eye. :D I hope I will make my four night run. It would be a first for me. My mother is afraid I will overdose. How awesome, a Lightfoot overdose. :cool:

Are you able to sleep the night of the concert? Or do you hear the songs going around in your head all night like I do?

Anyway, I am sending good vibes your way for a magical night and safe travel.

:) :D :)
