Spike Gillespie chats with Sara
Read an intimate interview in the current issue of Austin Mama!
"...I can say, with all authority and true delight, that the 1989 be-nice-to- the-overzealous-drunk-Spike-at-the-
bar Sara is precisely the same as today’s Sara, with one exception. Today’s Sara has had that much more time to become who she is—full, ripe, astonishing, so skilled at giving people a Lou that she can do so now without even throwing up her arms. Just being around Sara you want to lean in, listen, and watch her, as warm and mesmerizing and groovy as the coolest lava lamp ever."

Dear Friends,
The school across the street from Charmaine Neville's
house in New Orleans has finally re-opened. They need
musical instruments. If you have or know someone who
has an unused band instrument in good repair, please
contact me at this email address.
Also, if you could forward this to your lists and
spread the word, I'd
appreciate it. You never can tell who played flute in
high school and still has one under the bed. We'll
pick them up or they can be dropped off at my office.
We are going to New Orleans in December and will take
whatever we gather then.
If an instrument is located in another area, NOLA
Relief may be able to help with shipping and the
instrument could be sent directly to Charmaine.
Donations of money would also be appreciated and then
we could send our pawnshop crew out to work their
magic.
The need, like the beat, goes on. If we were buried
under a mountain of instruments, we could place them
all over the Gulf Coast. NOLA Relief is still sending
money to New Orleans musicians through your generous
contributions. Thank you so much.
Marcia Ball
