How do you sum that up? Unbelievable production value, what a live stream that was. Gord was on fire, and he didn't make it about himself. An amazing show that was.

YouTube stream is going now with cbc radio conversation about the concert and the host is barely, barely holding it together.

Sadly missed it, how can I re-watch the stream from the beginning? Is it just going to "appear" on the CBC youtube page as a normal video in a few hours?

Couldn't handle Grace Too... I just completely fell apart.

My favorite musical memory of all time without a doubt . Could not fathom being live for that

Well that was amazing. Walked out to the backyard and took a deep breath and just sat for a bit. Thank you Gord. You went out your way.

Really tough weekend for grappling with mortality here; particularly the mortality of the mind. Put my mother into the hospital for alzheimers yesterday; perhaps the last time she's ever at the family farm. I spent so many of those evenings at the farm as a youth listening to Gord. Just weird, emotional timing of all this; I hadn't even been sure I was going to listen tonight, but I'm really glad I did. So much I can't articulate about being able to say what you want to say, connect with people in the ways that are most important on the way out. I'm a bit of a wreck right now.

I'm a casual Hip fan, didn't make it through dry eyed. I did not expect that.

It's been a ride Gord and I didn't even know it. Thanks for everything.

CBC said they aren't gonna post it and if you don't want to wait for a bluray I'd just find a torrent.

5 or 6 tissues in, man that was intense. Everything you guys have said I felt too. Loved all of it.

I hope it isn't the last show but they played like it was. End of Grace, too, I lost it. So much crying, ugly crying, not embarrassed at all.
