Its official we have been evicted from the studio. I hadn’t mourned the loss of it yet, I was ever hopeful that the landlord would change his mind. Chris had been working on him with some heavy doses of kindness and compassion, but no luck. He tells us stories of why we can’t have the space we created, made beautiful, then we find out the stories are not true. His heart which I have no doubt is full of light, is hidden away from us and it looks like we are going to have to accept that he has the upper hand.
Michael is away. The studio is ours until the 31st. I have to go down the day after boxing day and remove all our stuff, leave our non-human baby behind. It really does feel like loosing a part of my family. I imagine there is going to be a lot of tears that day.
To make things feel done I have notified the Sanctum Studio facebook group. Putting things on facebook always seems to make it final. Thank you to everyone who sent us condolences, and kind words, if nothing else knowing we have support is a blessing. I love all you wonderful people.
To end on a celebratory note, one with dance involved, here is a video of the Brian Rosen and the What Now, at Sleep is for Sissies a while back. The womyn dancing in the vest is me. This is me in my bliss, I love to dance and one lost studio will never even come close to putting out my fire.

Day 6 Twelve of Twelve- What Now?
“On the sixth day of Christmas my true love gave to me...
six Geese A-laying“
I went to a show tonight. When the band was ready to go on for their second set I was the only one in the room,everyone else was outside talking and smoking, inspecting Winlaw's newest outdoor ice rink. The band joked they were going to put on a private show for me, my friend Ty laughed and said “Ya and then you better write about it in your blog”...and so I will.
The band is Brian Rosen and the What Now. I have mentioned them here on the blog before, I believe this is my 4th time seeing them, they just keep getting better and better. Their music is a little all over the place, I mean that in the good way. They do their original songs and some really cleverly arranged remakes, mostly Bob Marley the one I love best though is Paul Simon’s, Gumboots. They play a higher consciousness sound, with positive affirming lyrics, they are phenomenal to dance to, lots of groovy bass and sax. I went with my Goddess friend Jill, we danced from the beginning to the very end at which time every person in the room was on their feet. I have so enjoyed seeing these men commit themselves to their craft, their artistry, creating positive music that grows and informs. They are my brothers, playing music for me to dance my way to God. Thank you Ben, Ty, Rob, Jesse Lee, Brian, my Jilly Bean and everyone else who came out for a beautiful night of conscious dancing to conscious music. The world is waking up, one committed soul at a time.
So how can I make a reference to 6 Geese a laying? How about the band is 5 and I am 1, together we were flying in formation laying down some artful giving and receiving. But of course there were more than 6 of us there, it takes more than 6 geese to create the kind of connected ecstatic vibe we had going on down at Sleep is for Sissies, tonight.
