excerpt:

The second thing was during CRT. Gord had been joking around more than
usual in between songs, but never during a song. The band had been
chuckling about something during the second half, and it wasn't until
later I found out that some guy on an aisle seat in the center had
fallen asleep. Anyway, Gord got to the pause "and many are the dead
men......." when he uncharacteristically pointed and loudly said
"AND THERE'S ONE NOW!". The place went nuts! The band laughed,
Gord laughed, and everyone went crazy! I don't even remember if he
finished the song , but he must have. I sure can't remember ever
laughing that hard at a concert, especially during a song!
