In what was
described as the most magical moment of the three-day Osheaga Festival in
Montreal, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros invited a paraplegic and a few
of his friends on stage today for the final two songs of the band’s set.
During
ESMZ’s If I Were Free, wheelchair-bound François Bernier
crowd-surfed to the main stage with the help of the fans.
“Thank you
so much @esmzeros!!” Bernier commented on Instagram. “I’m that guy in
wheelchair and I’ll never forget that moment and still can’t believe that it
happened! It was truly unreal!”
Instagram
was instantly blowing up with pics, videos and some beautiful comments. Here
are just a few:
“Incredibly
moving and inspiring moment today at Osheaga in Montreal. People taking care of
people.” – ESMZ trumpet player Stewart Cole (@picocole)
“Yesterday’s
set at Osheaga is one I’ll never forget. In a moment of pure serendipity, as
the band started ‘If I Were Free’ this young man was carried by his friends
through 40,000 people up to the stage. Magical tear jerking moment. When you
are open to the world, the world is open to you. Be kind to each other out
there.” – @messick1
“Hands down,
the most beautiful moment of #Osheaga2015. With the help of the crowd, this fan
was lifted and carried all the way to the front, where he joined #edwardsharpe
onstage. Needless to say, most of us were left crying.” – @nu_mtl
“During
#EdwardSharpeAndTheMagneticZeros some guys crowd surfed their friend in his
wheel chair and the band brought him up on stage. #AndICriedLikeABitch –

“@esmzeros
did the coolest thing tonight. So it was literally a sea of people. The cameras
came across a man, crowd-surfing who was in a wheelchair, which in itself was
already, really pretty amazing to see, BUT then
#EdwardSharpe&theMagneticZeros invited the man onstage, extended their
instrumental break, and waited patiently as he surfed up to the front, and did
not continue the set until he and his friends were up there with them. #amazing
moment.” – @kennedyzielke
“Edward
Sharpe with the most heartwarming moment of osheaga: – @jasonham_
“The picture
doesn’t do this moment justice but Edward Sharpe got me crying a little (along
with the security guard next to me) when he brought this guy on stage. Such a
great end to the set.” – @chris_barbieri
“Edward Sharpe
stole the show, and almost made me cry. The most beautiful festival moment
#osheaga #edwardsharpe #manoftheyear” – @kelmac89
“Edward
Sharpe, you blew my mind. Had to hold back the tears.” – @erokasg
“There’s
always something magical happening at a ESMZ show” – @jillyjee
