Me 'n Mr. Lightfoot, Toronto @ Hugh's Room, Jan. 14, 2005 

What an honour! I've been performing all week in the 3rd Annual Gordon Lightfoot Tribute Show organized by Aengus Finnan, Jory Nash and Rachel Barreca.

Gordon Lightfoot actually came to Friday night Hugh's Room show! I got to chat with him briefly; he asked me what songs I was singing; I replied "If You Could Read My Mind" and "I'd Do It Again". Then he started singing "I'd Do It Again"...we sang together for a verse...was fun!
I was so honored to meet him; what a spark he has!

Big thanks to Aengus, Jory and Rachel for having me along for the ride this year.
And thanks to the rest of the 'cast' involved: Dave Gunning, J.P. Cormier, Ian Tmblyn, Dave Matheson, Mike Ford, Brenley and Lisa from Madviolet, Jenny Whiteley, Joey Wright, Rick Fines, Justin Rutledge, Dan Kershaw, and the rockin' house band - Jason Fowler, Anne Lindsay, and David Woodhead. I loved getting to meet you and hearing y'all sing and play!

Thanks, Mr. Lightfoot, for writing some amazing tunes...
