I'd like to punch cancer in the f'n face.

Tragically Hip frontman Gord Downie was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.

I was very lucky to get Gord Downie to perform a concert at my old bar, The Roosevelt Room back in 2010, as part of Festival Music House during TIFF. He's also performed at charity events I helped produce too.

What makes this suck even more is his wife struggled against cancer as well.

Fuck you cancer.

Gord, love and light brother.
