Nick Fraser & Tania Gill - Thank You and GoodnightSome things are hard. In the aftermath of a sudden loss, family, friends and collaborators joined together to celebrate the life and music of Justin Haynes. Famously banned from The Tranzac, the sad smiles at the fact of his return were indicative of the vibe: shock and sadness with a grimly-funny streak. Hopefully being together helped some people move forward in processing this tragedy, and hopefully Justin's music and spirit will be remembered and celebrated. Over the course of the afternoon and evening, many of his fellow-travelers paid tribute by revisiting Justin's material or offering some new tributes. Here's a few of the sounds from the day.
Away on one her now-frequent working sojourns to Berlin, Lina Allemano was unable to be in Toronto to take part in this event, so instead she sent this spare and melancholic new piece to be played by two more of Haynes' close friends.
