I must say I’ve seen you play in Saskatoon a few times and once in Van and every time you put on one hell of a show. Its great to see a performer pour his heart and sould into every performance, every chord for that matter. Your CDs have certainly become a staple in the music rotation. From all your fans in the praries PLEASE come back to Saskatchewan sometime soon, we miss you out here!

Regards and thanks for the great music,

Landon

Hello there, a number of years ago when I patronized the Starlight in Waterloo Ontario, I was gobsmacked by a performer one evening.  It was an evening not unlike many in the haze of corporate freneticism in that high-tech epi-centre, and I sought solitude and anonymity in the slippery, sweaty pulsing crowd of my friend’s club.  When Wil performed that evening, it was evident that he oozed a preposterous talent.  And he did break a string. These intervening years since that evening,  I have traveled the world on my own pilgrimage, away form stuff, noise and people. Unplugged.

Well, how happy was my heart when recently as I listened to CBC Canadian Songwriters online Wil’s music is played.  And not just once in a while but often.

Ah.

Hi Wil,
Didn’t know who you were until we saw you last night at the Commodore – and yes…..you broke strings.  We were right up front and you were awesome.  I think I drank some of your sweat!

You rocked it out buddy – it was great, thank you

We love you Wil, and Jason’s cute too!!

Keep on rockin in the free world

Just wanna say hi,

My wife and I just got home from seeing you tonight as you opened for Dave Cousins @ Hugh’s Room.
We were both surprised by your performance and stage presence. Great original material, By December
awesome CD!
Your emotion and love for your craft is not only very noticeable in your voice and playing but performing
live your face and body language lend a whole other dimension. The passion you feel spreads as soon as
you begin moving on stage! Awesome performance and much too short! Given the circumstances though
as Richard said when he introduced you, we were lucky to have gotten to see you tonight and most
certainly look forward to seeing you back real soon…!
Anyways, GREAT show & CD! Keep it up!

Cya soon

Wil,
Your show in Thunder Bay was absolutely amazing! I would have gladly paid twice or triple the ticket price to see your show. Your music is true and comes from the heart, which is lacking so much today in music. I went home feeling great and feeling inspired. I look forward to the next time I’ll be close enough to see your show!
All the best,

Braden

Thank you both for providing such a wonderful tribute to what music is supposed to be. Heart felt by both the performer and the audience.  It felt like I transcended time and space to another galaxy…seriously though, absolutely brilliant.

H-O-L-Y-S-H-I-T!!!  Dude.  Thanks for the reference.
I checked him out and that man is F**ED!  He ripped up his guitar.  Such a full sound from one dude.
Thanks man.  The venue was super cool and the crowd was amazingly receptive.  All-in-all, an awesome tip.
Thanks.
