Michael Jackson Fans Square Up

For the second time in a few days, Dundas Square was again home for fans and mourners of Michael Jackson. Unlike the impromptu dance party that landed at the intersection of Dundas and Yonge on Friday, last night’s event—a tribute to Jackson and his music that was also billed as a Canada Day celebration, hastily organized by The Manifesto Festival—was prepared a bit more in advance and lasted three hours, concluding just before 11 p.m. with a moment of silence for Jackson.
Torontoist photographer Nick Kozak was at the event, and his shots are above.

    According to the CP24 news crawl thing, these Jackson fans couldn’t be bothered to clean up after themselves and a private crew had to be called in to do the job. (I can’t find a link to it on their site.)

    I love how the token white guy is the only one clapping off-beat in this one.

    Actually all of the members in that group were black, that guy happens to have lighter skin and the back light.

    Seriously? Even his hair looks like white-boy hair. Weird.
    Oh well, it’s funnier to think he’s the token white guy clapping off beat.
    Great pics btw.
