Sad news
today in the Montreal music scene. Dédé Fortin, the lead singer of Les Colocs, was found stabbed in his apartment yesterday. I’d only met him once, but he seemed like a really nice guy. Except for Jean Leloup, they’re the only French-language band in Montreal I like.

over at High Industrial is excellent. And it looks great too, for sure.
