Allen Toussaint Benefit Shows | Filmmaker Kills Self
"Singer, pianist, songwriter, arranger and producer" Allen Toussaint is playing New Orleans (Katrina) benefit shows at Joe's Pub in NYC on December 30th, January 15th, February 19th, and March 12th, 2006. Tickets @ Telecharge.
In sadder, but very related news, filmmaker Stevenson J. Palfi shot himself Dec. 14 at his home. "He had been severely depressed after Hurricane Katrina damaged most of his property and possessions.....At the time of his death, Palfi was in the final stages of production on a feature-length program about Toussaint titled 'Songwriter, Unknown.' He had been working on the film for more than 15 years."
