Since this was done on the fly, please spread the word!!!

The rock and roll community fund

This fund was put together to aid members of the garage and punk rock
communities who have lost everything due to Hurricane Katrina. Most
recipients identified are currently in Memphis and Austin, however we are
taking names of those in need from wherever they have established temporary
homes. Thanks to DJ Paddy Bullocks, whose father is a minister there, funds

are being administered by Trinity Parish Church. Due the high concentration

of those in need who have fled to Memphis and Austin, funds are being

distributed by Goner Records in Memphis and Rocks Off Records in Austin.
