I found this tonight in my citys news .I live in San Francisco,I was born here,60 years ago.I was not able to see Lindsey perform there today.I have a medical issue I am dealing with my knee.I couldn't be sitting on a lawn in Golden Gate Park.I have the finances to see him perform solo.But unfortunately this tour I won't be able to see him.But happy many of his other fans will be seeing him perform live.
