Apart from all the negative news that we come across when conducting a thorough post mortem of a music festival, there are stories that delight us beyond words. At the recently concluded Osheaga Music Festival in Toronto, we witnessed one such special moment.

40,000 fellow attendees helped the gentleman crowd-surf across the main stage and was then taken straight to the mainstage during a set from Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. Β Ebert then clicked a selfie with him, and dropped ‘If I Were Free’ with him on stage. Witnesses claim it was incredibly wonderful to watch. Check it out below:
This had me in tears. One of the most beautiful moments I have had the chance to witness. Faith in humanity restored!Avoir les larmes aux yeux. Un des plus beaux moments du weekend. #osheaga
