You made us cry, Karl Tremblay. By drawing on all your remaining energy to sing courageously with the best crowd of 90,000 people on the Plains of Abraham on Monday evening, you gave cancer the best middle finger and you gave the Cowboys Fringants family the most emotional moments ever seen on this mythical site.

You felt the love of Quebecers, my dear Karl, didn’t you? You saw that we were all behind you, during this show that we wanted so much that the festival was extended by one day to hold it.
On our side, we saw that Jean-François, Jérôme and your Marie-Annick, whom you looked at lovingly at the end ofDown herethe emotional starting point of a moving concert, we have seen that they will never let you go.
When you needed a break or your voice broke, they took over with us, they let you sit down to catch your breath. So that you can give us magical moments.
“We will get through”
Magic how? Like when you asked for and got help from the Plains, who lit up to sing with you on my shoulder.
Your friend Jean-François Pauzé had just offered you a five-minute break. You didn’t want it. “We’re going to take the break later.”
Have the Plains ever been more beautiful than when time stood still? Never.
We were overwhelmed and proud when you told us “that the guy is tired, but it doesn’t matter, we’ll get through it”.
“You know, you continued, we did festivals all over the Francophonie. Honestly, the Festival d’été de Québec is the most beautiful festival in the world. […] To come back to play with us in Quebec, there is nothing that beats that. […] Are we really home, bitch?
In the media tent, all eyes were wet.
The heart at the party
It was so touching to see Marie-Annick going to kiss you while you were going through straight aheadassis.
Karl, crisse, you were a warrior. You got up and we had our hearts pumping when you swung The Demonstration, The Queen, Happy Calvary et Hector’s shack.
With a smile on your face, you watched Jérôme Dupras treat himself to a daring session of body surfing then invited festival-goers to come on stage to dance to As long as we have love with you.
All the symbolism of this memorable evening was there: the Quebec flag placed on your shoulders, your admirers behind you.
Ovation
As a reminder, it was a great idea to ask Sara Dufour to give you the line on the duo of flayed lovers of merchant navy. The public, of course, contributed greatly in an admirable collective festive momentum.
Never flinching in the face of adversity, you went the distance, straight as an oak tree, until we all sang together Shooting Starson even more beautifully lit Plains, and receive the ovation you deserve.
Unforgettable
We were going to leave, but you didn’t want to leave. After almost two hours of concert, you launched: “Another one?”
And then there, the touring musicians left, surrounded by your Cowboys, you ended up with A little tour. It was sublime. Another extension for the FEQ.
Karl, Monday night, you gave it your all on the Plains. This show, which you wanted to offer us, we will never forget.
Merci, Karl Tremblay!
