Fanmail: Julie Anne

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.
