Met the Crew, as the Band and Road Crew were a long-standing family,  a few time here in Canada and the Southern US, and they were always fabulous in any setting. Open and FUN!! Big deal for my Partner and I, as she was not familiar with the Hip/Downie, was getting involved in the Secret Path tour  - very brief period. He was so sick but still nailed it. So Pro / all of them were. In conversation, he was interested in me/my family, not himself (he could not remember well). He seemed more worried about his family/art than himself and promoting the HELL out of Secret Path and Chanie's/Residential School story; man, he had the media wrapped around his finger and hanging on every word...they were all fans LOL. We were so impressed and inspired, by Gord, and the whole Crew. Great guys, all of them!!! A few short days of magic.

Lots of art will come from his legacy I trust. He leaves a long tail and was, and did, inspire a broad swath of fellow musicians/Artist.​
