Justin Nozuka at the Shops at Don Mills



I was reading the free newspaper on the train home from work one day when I saw an ad that the Midway State was playing at the new mall. I already knew about that show and was busy that day so I wouldn't have been able to go. I kept reading the ad and to my surprise I saw that 'newcomer' Justin Nozuka for opening for Kathleen Edwards! I started texting as many people I could to tell them about Justin's show. A lot of people told that me they were busy =(.

On the day of the show I got there a bit early to get a good spot. I noticed that all the chairs were wet...it had just poured like crazy but the sun was blazing right after.

Here are some of the songs that were played: Swan In The Water, I Carried You, Criminal, Be Back Soon, Woman Put Your Weapon Down, Stand Up and Fight For Now. Justin said that the 2nd album is all done, yay =).

After the band was done you could see all the girls get up from their seats and book it to the back of the stage haha. Justin was nice, as always, taking pictures and talking to all the fans. There was this one man with his daughter. There was another guy and the dad was telling the guy that he should get a picture with Justin becuase who knows how much it could be worth in the future. He was saying to the guy that if you could've gotten a picture with Paul McCartney when he was younger you'd be the shit now (not that exactly but he was trying to say that Justin is gonna be HUGE and I totally agree).

Finally it was my turn to see Justin. Quick chat, a picture and then I was off. I've been to many JNB shows before but I've never introduced myself to Mark so I told him that I've seen them play quite a few times and what my name is. I doubt he still remembers.
