I am so pleased to see such kind words written here. He was truly a talented, gifted singer song writer. One time at Mucky Duck Houston Dawn Landes was with his group, and between songs she grabbed me and we danced while Justin was singing on the tiny stage. She was so sweet. My husband was so jealous HE didn't get to dance with her. It was a song called Can't Hardly Wait. She told me, I know the words, I wish he would let me sing with him on this tune. She was happy and smiling and we were just enjoying the music. You should go to Mucky Duck Houston! On Norfolk. The food is AMAZING! Some of the best food in Houston.

Looking at all these videos now, it’s crystal clear to me when he was clean and carefree, where it’s all so effortless and otherworldly (such as this one) - compared to others where he has that nervous caught-in-the-headlights, 5000 yard stare, now-what look? I prefer the former but maybe the songs were written in the latter??!? I’m so impressed, day after day, now that he’s gone. 🙏
