On Wednesday, September 2, the curtain will come down on Aurora's 2020 summer concert series with Classic Lightfoot Live, Aurora resident John Stinson's tribute to the Canadian icon. Pre-registration for the 100 free tickets available for the season finale concert will begin Friday, August 28, at aurora.ca/eplay. Classic Lightfoot Live is set to bring to life such standards from the Canadian music songbook as If You Could Read My Mind, Canadian Railroad Trilogy, Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, Early Morning Rain, and more. Speaking to The Auroran before he performed at a 2018 fundraiser for CHATS (Community & Home Assistance to Seniors), Mr. Stinson said he first fell in love with Gordon Lightfoot's music as a teen while learning to play the guitar. He tried to copy what he thought were Lightfoot's simple sounds, but, after discovering they were more complex than he imagined, the seeds of a passion were firmly planted. ?I loved his lyrics and unique melodies,? he said. ?You'd buy his latest album, listen, and read through the lyrics as the new songs came across your 2-bit record player. During college parties I would play more than drink, and was always asked to play Canadian Railroad Trilogy.
