Osheaga is one of the largest summer concert events in Canada. It takes place at Parc Jean Drapeau, on the island in the middle of the St. Lawrence River across from downtown Montreal.
This year the music and arts festival celebrated it’s 10th anniversary and by all accounts was another great success.
Montreal musician, Jason Bajada, was moved by something more than the band he was watching.
In the sold-out crowd of 40,000, a young man in a wheel-chair was crowd surfed, and eventually invited onto the stage by Alex Ebert.
Ebert, the lead singer of the band ‘Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros‘ introduced the young man and his friend, who were helped onto the stage by security, as “Frank and Victor”
The two captured the moment, taking a selfie with Ebert as the band performed their song, “If I Were Free”.
Jason Bajada posted it to Facebook commenting, “one of the most beautiful moments of the weekend”
