Looks to me like they only gave 107 answers and will be repeating all of them, my question is do we get two entries to the draw for every right answer or only one entry seeing how it's the same word?

[quote=Neon;1487849]Went to see Gordon Lighfoot last night at Massey Hall - first of four nights. Never saw in concert before. I've now seen a Canadian legend! It was either that or Anne Murray
He did his well known songs to an appreciative crowd. With weather like today it only seems appropriate to have look at one of his more famous songs. His voice was pretty good for someone who is 71, still tours and was in a coma for 6 weeks a few years back. Enjoy
.................................................. .................................................. ..
here's hoping your weren't the guy sitting next to me. i'll get back to that in a sec...
i saw gordon in concert a few years back in Hamilton. he had come out of mc master a shadow of his former self(i almost died when he walked onto the stage). gorden sang the praises of the medical staff that had quite literally saved his life; in fact, there were a lot of doctors and nurses from McMaster in attendance.
it was a wonderful evening! gordon was a very happy guy and it came through loud and clear in his performance. gordon's band was in fine tune and the audience was lively.we shared our love for this great Canadian living Legend openly.
back to massey hall:when we took our seats i said hello to the handsome man one seat to my right. i was tired, run down and dowdily dressed, but he smiled and nodded. once seated i kept being hit in the back of my head by some guys fat, soft butt(...another time, another place who knows, i might not have minded...) he continually bent over to retrieve stuff from his purse and in general, getting ready to nest, i guess. my "date" must have seen "the look" while i started to pull a linda blair and he quickly subdued me, "it's ok. i'll keep my arm up". so i let it go. i was sooo indignant.
gordon and band took to the stage. he received a very warm, hometown welcome from a hometown crowd. the lights went down and i suddenly felt incredibly tired.... before i knew it the lights came on and it was time for intermission. i was so pissed at myself for having slept through the first half of his concert...btw his voice is also a shadow of it's former self...but we were there to see him not criticize. i apologized to my "date" and he assured me, reasoning of course, i get up so early/ what could one expect, blah, blah, blah.
second half started with 'the edmond fitzgerald' and we were captivated! the next thing i remember was waking up to an elbow in my left side...or was it the very loud SNORT that came from my snout! gawd! i was so embarrassed. could the blow horn have come during a particularly lively instrumental piece...no this hot chick decides to rip when you could hear a pin drop. how rude was that? what a friggin insult to everyone that heard me and especially gordon. i was mortified...
so, if that was you, neon that glared at me when i wished you a good night and a quick sorry, i need to say, "i'm sincerely sorry!"

LMAO, too funny. - Putt, not sure where your seats were but I happen to be right section orchestra, a couple of rows back...good seats. No, that wasn't me in your section...I don't think. I had the 'backup singers' behind me - as my colleague said, "If I wanted to hear you sing I'd have paid for you to be on stage...but your not!" and the woman beside me tried to be invisible when she bent-over ran to the centre aisle to get a picture of GL with her cellphone (it wasn't a good cellphone either).
I must say, the first half his voice was soft and not too strong. Maybe that lulled you into "nap" mode. His voice was stronger in the 2nd half. A decent performance.
No worries, only 2,800 "strangers" in the place. From where I was I didn't hear anything...maybe I was a sleep?!Shine On!

The only thing that could have been funnier is if Neon actually was sitting next to you!!!! This is by far the funniest thing I've seen or read this week....thank you for your 'review' of the concert

Geez Putt, next time I read one of your posts I'm gonna put down my glass of water first. I sprayed it all over the keyboard (from my nose, no less!).
