Ron Sexsmith - heading your way in April – remembers “life-changing” shows seen over the years

By Mark Ellen, David Hepworth and Alex Gold

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.
