and what a sexy sign it was!
Can't wait to read everything, but from Nancy's post it sounds like you had a great time. Can't wait to see what GAs story is. Glenn calling you his girlfriends, saying he knew you'd be there. That's so sweet!
The first time I heard this song in '07 was just 2 months after my grandfather passed away. I had just started to come out of the fog of the first part of the grieving process when I found I was able to go to Canada. As I sat there listening to the words of the song tears were raining down my face. The song was like a warm hug. It was so comforting at such a painful time in my life. I can listen to it now without crying (usually) but hearing it live had me in tears once again. But in a good way. lol
Awwwww Lissa what a touching comment. I'm sure Glenn would be so touched to hear how his music has the power to comfort you and so many others. He really is a man in a million.
I really feel too that I should post a BIG
THANK YOU
To Nancy and Kay particularly for organising everything in such a smooth and efficient manner. They organised hotel rooms and transport and entertainment, and their attitude was 'get to your airport and we'll do the rest' and they did. Nothing was too much trouble for them and it was sooo reassuring to have someone on the 'other side' to do this. It wasnt just me that they did it for, they were available for all of us. And they are busy people too.
While obviously, the main reason I went was for the gigs it was SOOOOOO wonderful to be able to spend time with what I would now consider to be the best bunch of friends I have ever had. Cyber friendship is great, but it's
wonderful to meet up and with such a fantastic group of people.
I really hope we get the chance to do this all over again.
Long live the Border

Yes - I found it in my car. It must've fallen out of my purse before I got out of the car to go to the terminal. So, I wasn't stupid enough to forget it entirely - just careless enough to not realize it had fallen out of my purse until I was in the airport.
Hello everyone; a brief post to tell you that I'm home safely & will be back later to post my reviews. I read the other thread & thanks to everyone who posted. I have a LOT to write about.
ETA: I've now done the inevitable av & sig change; I took the av photo & that shirt is similar to his second night shirt; while the photo on the right of my sig loomed large over the 2 days. It may have to become an av. I won't now be posting any reviews until tomorrow because although I have written a lot of notes I need to get it exactly right.
