The Powder Blues band in Seaforth BY JANET TENC At 10 p.m., the bar was smoky - Just right for hot blues. The audience was with the Powder Blues Band all the way whep the band performed at the Queens Hotel in Seaforth recently, swaying, singing, danc- ing. The technicians were doing their own steps. The band didn't forget to include the audience in the lyrics, ad libbing Seaforth into "What Have I Been Drinking". By the end of the first set, thrilled by the bunchof-buddies-jamming-together feel of the music. 1 always find it takes nerve to ask for something big, such as an interview with a • well-known band in this case, the Powder Blues Band. Full of trepidation, 1 inquired of the manager at the Queen's Hotel where in the building could the stage crew be found. He directed me to the third floor. Nervously, Men's indu 1 approached the indicated door. Brian, the sound man, and a few of the band members chatted amicably with me in the disappointingly not full -to -capacity bar. I could tell, by their references to Tom Lavin, that there was a special friendship within the band. The Powder Blues Band formed in June of 1978. They ,have four albums including: Uncut,, Thirsty Ears, Party Line and Red Hot/True Blue, a double album, a fifth album can be expected to be out in Sept. Recently, the band headlined the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, which, as Tom Lavin, band leader .says, "is the most prestigious music event in the world". But why were the Powder Blues in Seaforth? "I play anywhere - 10,000 to 200, seven days a week, In 1983 we.did 240 shows in ,seven countries. 1 like this 'audience. 1 don't follow a trend, I follow my own musical soul. If the world likes it that's great," said Mr. Lavin. • When not on the road Mr. Lavin has produced for Susan. Jacks, Jim Burns and Hot Shoes. He has also done the movie score for "No Looking Back", He does most of the band's songwriting. On occasion he uses really old blues tunes that no one else would know. He said that their music appeals to a wide age group, from eight to 70. A11 songs have a story. What's a song without a story?" The band played many Powder Blues hits: "Thirsty Ears", "Joyride", and "Doin' it Right (on the wrong side of Town)." For the encore they leased "Guitar Ring" and "Boppin to the Blues". The applause lasted long after the band left the stage. A final insight on the leader of this unique party band, Mr. Lavin, dressed in a black T•shirt, designer jeans, scuffed shoes, with a gaunt face advises.people to, "Do your best to keep the world a nice place for your children to live in." `r`iaT ball. league results In., the men's industrial ball league, the Creamery defeated the Bears in the early game of June 25 with a score of 10 to 7, Ladies softball LADIES' REC.
