I got home from work and there was a note to come to the 6 piece funk band show at Le Voyeur, so I was going to catch the next bus down, but there isn't a 9:37 going downtown, so hitch-hiked from the bus-stop along with a gal who was in the same predicament. Got to Le Voyeur in time to hear Sarah P. sing a couple beatiful songs, and then heard a band that was just excellent. I didn't catch their name, but it started with a D. Wait a sec, the Le Voyeur show calendar tells me their name is dLand. They were awesome! They got the place dancing. They brought at least one amazing crystal and candles with the OM symbol on the side and very pleasing tapestries that were hung around the place. It was the best I have ever seen Le Voyeur. It was a good crowd too. There was a keyboard and drumkit session that jazz rocked. I think the keyboard guy was named Leon, and the drummer may have been Jamie, but I am not absolutely sure. There was a band with guitar and keyboard that sang a song about "being here for beer", which was well recieved. Nice effects and good beats from the keyboard, and the helmet with a microphone affixed to it was a nice touch. Members of Scream Club and A-Kamp were amongst the crowd. As I was moseying around there was a guy who said we could never have peace because people are a blight or something, and I had to say about how when a flock of birds changes direction they just do it, and somehow they all know when they're going to head another way - and that people being like birds in that way has me feeling that peace is possible. Anyhow, I was kind of tired because I had been awake for a long time, so we caught a ride cross-town with a good person who offered us a lift. Was sorry not to stay for Mac Dawg and the Human JukeBox. Have seen them put on a rockin' show at Le Voyeur. Was also sorry to get there too late to hear the beautiful singer and songwriter Taryn Goodman. Sleepy now. G'night.
