The Gordon Lightfoot Tribute Concert

An evening of “up north” folk music is planned when Friends of the Fitz presents “The Gordon Lightfoot Tribute” Concert. The show is being presented as part of Superior’s Year of the Fitz, to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Edmund Fitzgerald making her final and tragic port call to the City of Superior. The play-list includes such standards as “If You Could Read My Mind,” “Canadian Railroad Trilogy,” “Sundown,” “Carefree Highway” and “Rainy Day People.” Plus, of course, “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.” In 2007 Mackinaw City guitarist Mike Fornes assembled a band of four backing musicians for a salute to Canadian balladeer Gordon Lightfoot. The group’s work has developed into a stunning theatre show that replicates the Lightfoot concert experience.
