Gov’t Majik

I was at home for the better part of the weekend. I got my room clean, watched TV and so forth. On Sunday night I met Andrey, Patrick and David at the Hookah Cafe on Frenchman Street. It took over an hour to get a cab on the west bank but I wasn’t terribly late. Gov’t Majik had been playing for about 15 minutes when I arrived. I’ve heard them play at least once at the Hookah Cafe. I couldn’t characterize their music but they call themselves an “Afro-beat arkestra.” We were there for a couple hours and left at around midnight.
