Favorite moment: Our favorite moments were hearing him sing "If You Could Read My Mind" and "Beautiful" - special songs for many reasons. @
Setlist: Too many to mention - This performance was almost an anthology, or a recreation of Gord's Gold", except that he included some new songs, too! @

My husband and I have been Gordon Lightfoot fans for many years. In fact, we've loved his music ever since we heard "If You Could Read My Mind", way back in the early 70's. Yes, I know that Mr. Lightfoot is older now, but he is still an amazing performer. If anything, his age gives new meaning to the lyrics of many of his songs. He's now "been there and done that" - truly. I guess you might say that he sings with the authority of experience, and makes it all very entertaining. After the concert, we had the privilege of meeting him. Our children (both musicians) went with us and were so very taken with both his writing and his personality. I might add that he did not change his arrangments - the voice is perhaps not as strong as in his earlier days, but it is still there. Gordon lightfoot - still a troubador.

Gordon Lightfoot gave it all to his performance. His show was alright considering his health concerns over the years. Gordon had diminshed vocals but his spirit and enthusiasm remain.

The band was tight, the song selection good. Gordon's vocals were a little strained at times, but still shone bright. The Orpheum Theatre was incredible!
