When crises such as these hit so close to home and so strongly it's often hard to know where to turn to help first. You feel surrounded by devastation and blessed to have escaped so lightly. Some have lost some, some have lost all, but everyone is feeling it. If you can help, in any way, I'd like to guide you to the Red Cross official donation unit by adding the Red Cross button to my sites. You can click and contribute safely and in the knowledge that whatever you can do to help will make it to the right people

Very close to my heart is the heart and soul of music city and that is the musicians who have lost some or all of their equipment. Possessions, yes. Replaceable, mostly. But this recent event has hit the men and women who give the city its musical and lyrical pulse. Those who live to make music and smiles and memories.
