Why Can't Anyone Help These People Here?????

It's funny how we always hear "help Our Fellow People and yet I haven't really seen many people help us out besides the ones you see on the page itself. Now we are not asking to dig super deep in to your pockets here we're asking for a small amount like maybe $10, $20 or even $25 that's not much we, are working wit housing authorities to get a place as fast as possible but it's hard when they can only process the paperwork and such like they are doing we are now down to the wire and will be staying in a tent out in this cold autumn weather in new england here all because no one wants to help. Those who have helped, and they know who they are, we appreciate all you've done. Why can't others step up to the plate? It's sad to see how people treat their fellow person if you can donate to the link or share the link with people as well that's all we're asking for we'd like to achieve the goal on the page or even possibly go over the goal as we need a place to stay and food as well. Is that too much to ask folks or do we want more people to be cold and die? Please Give If You Can and Thank You All For The Donations That Have Come In So Far We Thank You And Love You All For What You've Done. link to the page: https://www.gofundme.com/f/donate-to-extend-their-motel-stay-in-holyoke-after-eviction?attribution_id=sl:4a669447-edd3-4b8b-910c-64026380896a&lang=en_US&ts=1789931982&utm_campaign=man_sharesheet_dash&utm_content=amp30-treatment-1&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=email

The Jimi Hendrix Experience "Magic Boy" Live At Berkeley: The First Show Is Purely Magical & Brings You There

It is finally here, folks: the official version of Live At Berkeley: May 30, 1970 – First Show. While unofficial bootlegs of both the first and second shows have circulated over the years with adequate sound quality, this officially remastered release by Eddie Kramer and Bernie Grundman makes you feel like you are sitting front row center. The energy captured in this performance is simply amazing. As was typical for Jimi, no two performances were ever identical. He preferred to keep things fresh on stage each night so he would never tire of the setlist. He delivered high-energy shows that consistently left audiences wanting more. By late May 1970, Jimi was putting the finishing touches on his own Electric Lady Studios in New York. Even during construction, he was actively recording new material in the studio—a facility that would go on to host a multitude of legendary artists. Because he was building the studio to his exact specifications, Jimi restricted his touring primarily to weekends. He wanted to personally test out the acoustic space and see how it handled recording. Plus, as we all know, Jimi loved nothing more than jamming in the studio with fellow musicians. This Berkeley performance has finally gotten its well-deserved day in the sun. It features a great mix of classic tunes everyone knows and loves from both The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band of Gypsys, alongside new material he was actively developing in the studio and testing in front of live audiences. This concert captured the final line-up of The Jimi Hendrix Experience, featuring Jimi Hendrix on guitar and vocals, Mitch Mitchell on drums, and Billy Cox on bass. While this rhythm section may not have logged as much road time as the original Experience line-up with Noel Redding, it was arguably the most dynamic. The chemistry among the trio was undeniable, always locked in the pocket and seamlessly playing off one another. The concert itself is phenomenal. While we won't spoil the second show—which has yet to receive an official standalone release—this first set drew a passionate crowd. Given Jimi's reduced touring schedule at the time, anticipation among fans was exceptionally high. The Berkeley Community Theatre was a smaller, more intimate venue than usual, holding roughly 3,500 seats across two sets, which meant many fans were left without tickets. Outside, ticketless fans clashed with police, threw stones, and even tried climbing onto the roof to gain entry. Inside, completely oblivious to the chaos taking place outdoors, Jimi and the band entered through a rear stage entrance, ready to perform. The Experience delivered a powerhouse set. They turned in magnificent renditions of classics like "Fire," "Red House," "Purple Haze," "Machine Gun," and "Message to Love," alongside newer tracks such as "Hear My Train A Comin'," "Ezy Rider," and "Freedom." As always, listeners were treated to a unique interpretation of "The Star-Spangled Banner." Jimi never played the national anthem the same way twice, feeding directly off the collective energy of the crowd. Two additional standouts in this set deserve special mention: the fierce closer "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" and the celebrated live rendition of Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode." Jimi absolutely shreds on that track, pouring everything into his guitar work in a performance that would make Chuck proud. Be sure to pick up this release and add it to your collection. It is a phenomenal, high-octane performance that has deserved an official release for a very long time. For those who remember watching the old VHS release, listening to this new remaster with headphones takes the experience to an entirely new level. It is bound to blow your mind.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and support. yes we were trying to originally raise just $900 but we still need more than that if you can help we sincerely appreciate it just go to this link below and donate if you can we are working with local housing authority programs but it's a bit of a process even if you're homeless nothing goes any faster sadly. I need to keep my insulin refridgerated being that I am a type 1 diabetic with hypoglycemia unawareness which means I'm not aware of when my blood sugar is going low which is why I have someone with me and I am also completely blind totally in my right and about thirty percent in my left, homeless shelters are filled and they won't accept a diabetic due to having to keep medication refridgerated we just need a little more help we need to stay in a motel for another two weeks three weeks tops every donation helps us out as i'm on a small fixed income and motel stays for a week are averaging approximately $700 a week. So we kindly thank you for your generosity and kindness with any help you can give thank you so much. More bad news on the horizon for me is that being a diabetic everyone realizes that people do need to eat as well well being that I am on SSDI and only get paid once a month between your generous donations i've had to pay for some of the motel stays in these last two weeks and the small month income I get has paid for these first two weeks but not sure where we are going to go for the next two weeks and the Foodstamps office has decided to give me now only $25 a month as I had to recertify and because I do not have a utility bill, or a copy of a lease to where i'm currently living they cut me to the $25 when I was making to feed us up till now I got $298 how is $25 supposed to feed the two of us we've been able to get for this week 2 loaves of bread some peanut butter and fluff along with some milk and that is supposed to last us 31 days according to the folks over at the foodstamp office so if anyone can help us with any type of donation it is greatly appreciated as we need to have shelter due to my situation and we need food so I don't continue to have low blood sugars daily as it is right now one peanut butter and fluff sandwhich with either some milk or tap water is not really sufficient for someone in my situation. We thank you all graciously for your kindness and generosity. We appreciate anything you can do to help us out. as I am a Type 1 Diabetic with Hypoglycemia Unawareness which means I do not know when i'm having a low blood sugar and I also need to keep my insulin refridgerated, plus being almost completely blind navigating dark streets are not easy for me either so not only do I appreciate everything but Amy does as well too as she helps me with everything she can she is my godsent angel.

The War On Being Homeless

As of September 15th of this year, we became homeless due to a landlord driven by corporate greed who simply can’t get enough money in her purse. Mui Tran of Quincy, Massachusetts, thinks a 550-square-foot, one-bedroom apartment unit is worth $1,500 a month. But wait until you hear what comes with the apartment for amenities: heat and hot water. That’s it. You still have to pay electric, which in Holyoke, Massachusetts, isn't high at all. An average month of electric from Holyoke Gas & Electric will run you no higher than $75 in the summer while running an air conditioner, and in the winter your bill will be no higher than $45. So that’s not bad. However, it’s what the apartment unit actually consists of on the inside that is the real problem: contaminated drinking water; a bathroom where, in order to use the toilet, you need to bring an umbrella because of the rain leaking from the pipes above you in the upper unit; and a shower that consists of either boiling hot water or freezing ice-cold water, bouncing back and forth every thirty seconds. Plan to be either scalded or frozen, with nothing in between. And let’s not forget the cockroaches, which are completely out of control. Mui Tran doesn't believe in routine pest control services. Or shall I say, she calls them maybe once a year, but doesn't alert you when they are coming. If you're home, great—they can come in and possibly do something. But in reality, they don't do much. The pest control agent doesn't even carry the proper gear for roaches; they just put out gel baits to keep them away, and for rodents, either sticky boards or poison bait. The pest control company doesn't even do their job properly across the building. There are sixteen units, and they don't knock on all the doors on each floor—they just go to a few random units. You might be lucky to get the service, or you may not. Now, Mui Tran kicked out this writer and his wife. We admit we did owe some rent, but we withheld payment because Mui Tran was not doing repairs in our unit at all and expected us to pay for the repairs on top of rent. Doesn't rent money go toward the upkeep of the property and units? We also had an agreement that we would use RAFT rental assistance to pay the back rent, which she initially agreed to. She submitted her required documentation, and we submitted ours. Yet, she got an execution order from a judge to evict us after agreeing to take the rental assistance, declaring at the last minute that she wasn't going to accept it. She would have had her money in full, and everything would have been fine. Instead, she had a sheriff come to remove us. We were promised a moving company would remove our belongings and put them in storage. On the day of September 15th, a sheriff and police officers were there, but there was no moving truck. The sheriff informed us there would be no moving truck either. Everything left in the apartment—which included a lot of my personal belongings—now belonged to the landlord, and she was throwing all of it out. There was nothing we could do about it. She even tried to keep my insulin for my diabetes and the sheriff said I could not take it with me luckly my wife did take it anyways and told the sheriff to F*** off. My sister-in-law has been kind enough to put us up in a motel in West Springfield, but that time is running out in a few days. Then we have to find a cheaper, independently owned motel where the owner or manager will hopefully give us a affordable monthly rate while we straighten everything out. We fully intend to sue the landlord due to the hazardous conditions we lived in, including contaminated drinking water and bio-hazardous materials leaking down on us from the bathroom ceiling, forcing us to use an umbrella just to sit on the toilet, which is absolutely disgusting. We are seeking some relief funds through GoFundMe to maintain our stay in a motel until we can secure a better living situation. We have raised some money already, and we thank everyone who has donated what they can—it is greatly appreciated. If you are reading this article, please consider sharing it along with the link, and donating to our cause if you are able. Being a Type 1 diabetic who is almost completely blind and suffers from hypoglycemia unawareness (meaning I do not know when my blood sugar drops dangerously low), any financial assistance helps us navigate out of this terrible situation. We have a strong lawsuit against Mui Tran of Quincy, Massachusetts, and her karma is coming back soon with a vengeance. Thank you for reading this article and for any help you can provide. If there are any lawyers reading this who would like to reach out, feel free to contact me through email at talkinghendrix@gmail.com. Thank you again, everyone.

David Myhr's "Is All About You" Pays Homage To The Beatles & Wings

by Ed Wrobleski (Host of Let The Good Times Roll, Sunday Morning Tea & Coffee With Ed Wrobleski, and Talking Hendrix on [www.bostonfreeradio.com] David Myhr, former frontman of the Merrymakers, has delivered a spectacular collection of tunes rich with the sounds of the Beatles and Wings. Each track evokes the late-era Beatles vibe of The White Album, alongside the signature melodic flair of Paul McCartney's 1970s work. Those classic influences shine through clearly across the album. "Say Yes" captures the early spirit of Wings, from the era when McCartney was forging a fresh direction rather than resting on his legendary past. Many of these tracks sound as if they could have emerged directly from classic Beatles or Wings recording sessions. In fact, listening closely, you can almost hear McCartney's distinct vocal phrasing built into the melody lines. Myhr proves once again what a talented songwriter he is. "Summer Summer Summer" stands out as an instant seasonal anthem, conjuring images of relaxing by the pool or on the beach. It deserves a permanent spot on your sunny weather playlists, though it makes for a fantastic listen any time of year. *Is All About You* delivers from start to finish. Whether you are a longtime fan of David Myhr or simply love the classic Beatles and Wings sound, this record is a must-have addition to your music library. Be sure to stream or purchase it on your favorite platform.
