Ron Sexsmith - heading your way in April – remembers “life-changing” shows seen over the years
Ron Sexsmith starts a UK tour at the end of April and talks about what he’s learnt about live performance, which includes:-
… “notes from girls” after winning the High School Variety Show.
… playing for drunks in his local bar when he was underage and being hidden when the police arrived.
… Elton John at the Rich Stadium in Buffalo (and being a member of the Fan Club).
… his first performance, singing ‘Ben’ by Michael Jackson.
… the influential low-key stagecraft of Gordon Lightfoot and Leonard Cohen, “people who just stood there”.
… the rigours of long tours.
… being “on Cloud Nine for a year” after seeing the Who.
… and watching Cat Stevens from the best seat in the house.
