Saturday I met up with a friend at Indigo (the bookstore was packed – is it the new happening hot spot?) and then walked over to the Church of the Redeemer to catch the Great Lake Swimmers early concert. The venue was incredible and the only thing that could have made the show better would have been for the sound guy to have killed the faint speaker buzz that permeated the entire show. It was a collection of the perfect lullaby’s for the thinking person and I was present in the moment the whole time – ahhh…
After the show was over it was a quick hop on the Bloor line to get to Hugh’s Room for the Kevin Breit/Harry Manx CD release – In Good We Trust. It was a flawless set from the opening notes of Diving Duck Blues to the closing of Voodoo Child, it’s so good to see these two performers joking around with each other after a long silence (they never even performed their first album together - it was that bad!).
An excellent musical evening, and now that I look at my fridge I have 5 concert tickets waiting for me, all the performances are in the next month or so… this is going to be fun!
