Thanks to all our supporters who showed up for our East Austin Block Party on Friday night at Victory Grill. We had a great time, and over 400 people joined us for this exciting event. A special thanks to Cyril Neville (of the Neville Brothers) for rocking out and getting everybody fired up!
Flashback...
Here's the write-up of Cyril Neville's performance at last year's Auditorium Shores rally.
If Cyril Neville is running for anything - maybe Minister of International Culture or at least head of the National Endowment for the Arts - he's got my vote. That was the first endorsement to be drawn from the Barack Obama event last Friday, as Neville & Tribe 13 funkified the crowd for more than an hour in the intermittent drizzle, as we waited for the headliner. Queen G delivered a stellar version of "Piece of My Heart" (albeit with the somewhat unnerving refrain, "Take another piece of my heart ... Obama!"), and the whole band rocked with "Everything I do b-be funky ..." May we all be so blessed.
