2. Thanks E
Another question for you...

I was at the Stones show last night, and during the piped in pre-show music, there was a cover of "Sunshine of Your Love" with a female lead vocal...Do you know who could have been the artist?

7. Neville brother, family find refuge in Tuscaloosa
full story: http://www.tuscaloosanews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050908/NEWS/509080354/1007

TUSCALOOSA | Katrina displaced even New Orleans royalty: Art Neville is staying with some of his family at Tuscaloosa’s Sheraton Four Points hotel for the near future.
They’re here partly because this city was an easy drive from the Crescent City, yet far enough away from Katrina’s main path, and partly because of their long friendship with Tuscaloosan Fred DeLoach.
“I figured I might as well go where I know someone," Neville said.

8. Charmaine's story is a hair raiser tho'
Women were Being Raped, Babies were Being Killed, Alligators were Eating People, But Where the Hell was the National Guard?

How We Survived the Flood
By CHARMAINE NEVILLE

(This is a transcription of an interview Charmaine Neville, of New Orleans's legendary Neville family, gave to local media outlets on Monday, September 5.)

I was in my house when everything first started. When the hurricane came, it blew all the left side of my house off, and the water was coming in my house in torrents.

I had my neighbor, an elderly man, and myself, in the house with our dogs and cats, and we were trying to stay out of the water. But the water was coming in too fast. So we ended up having to leave the house.

We left the house and we went up on the roof of a school. I took a crowbar and I burst the door on the roof of the school to help people on the roof.

Later on we found a flat boat, and we went around the neighborhood in a flat boat getting people out of their houses and bringing them to the school.

We found all the food that we could and we cooked and we fed people. But then, things started getting really bad.

By the second day, the people that were there, that we were feeding and everything, we had no more food and no water. We had nothing, and other people were coming in our neighborhood. We were watching the helicopters going across the bridge and airlift other people out, but they would hover over us and tell us "Hi!" and that would be all. They wouldn't drop us any food or any water, or nothing.

Alligators were eating people. They had all kinds of stuff in the water. They had babies floating in the water.
