And a few testimonials:
Man, it’s Tuesday and I’m still recovering from Toronto! I don’t know how you guys cope. I’m sure you’re still taking it easy. Well, I just wanted to thank you all for a marvelous time in your wonderful town. I had a blast and I hope that ya’ll were satisfied with what I brought to the festival. I certainly hope that you invite me back next year. (Henry Owings, Chunklet)
You guys ruled! thanks for all the love. NXNE is the jumpoff fa sho! Hope to see y’all again soon. (Heathcliff Berru, GZA’s manager)
Thanks so much for my NXNE experience – it was perfect. Very smooth and fun. (Melissa Auf Der Maur)
I just wanted to say that this whole NXNE experience was thoroughly enjoyable from beginning to end. Thank you so much for letting me take part. I’ll only think of the whole thing in the fondest, warmest way. All the best. (Guy Dixon, director of Toronto-New York, and Globe & Mail film critic)
Bringing Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison to NXNE for our Canadian Premiere was a no-brainer. A festival that so seamlessly integrates film and music into a comprehensive whole is something that will always want to be a part of. This is the future of the music/film festival. Can’t wait for next year. (Domenic Mussachio, producer of Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison)
