The worst live performer I ever saw was Gordon Lightfoot. I adored his music,
but he abruptly came on stage, performed his songs and left. He had zero
on-stage personality, and I already owned all the songs.
Reno used to be a performer´s paradise. Not so much anymore.
I did see Kenny Rogers in Harrah´s Cabaret when he was resurrecting himself
after The First Edition. He sang "Coward of the County" to us before the
song took off, all by himself, twenty feet away and with personality.
I also saw Bill Haley sing "Rock Around the Clock" in a small club toward
the end of his career.
