It is with great sadness that I must report that Kirk MacGeachy (the lead singer of Montreal's Orealis) passed away on the weekend of a heart attack. Hurley's is hosting a wake on Friday after his funeral. You can read more about him in today's Gazette (section D).



I'll miss Kirk. He and I weren't close friends, but we always caught up on our news each time we crossed paths in the various Montreal pubs and festivals. He was charming, funny, soft-spoken, and a true gentleman musician. It was always a pleasure to see him and hoist a pint together.
