As some of you know, there was a fire at the building where I, my husband, and frannydeschanel rent studio space. The bulk of the fire damage was done to the outside of the building, at the back. The back stairs, porch, and all doors and windows, are gone. Our bathroom was completely gutted.
Luckily (luckily?) there is only (only?) smoke and water damage to our belongings. We've been cleaning up a bit and throwing stuff out, and haven't quite got a handle on everything that's been lost. I had a lot of textile work stored, which I am sorting through and trying to clean. Dave's lost at least one installation, and some video equipment.
My eleuke was not damaged (although it needs a cleaning), and although franny's work table was completely soaked by a fire hose, the banjo uke project he's been working on was luckily not there at the time.
The Cedar Tavern Singers AKA Les Phonorealistes were working on a new CD; obviously recording's been delayed.
We're hoping the landlords get the reno started as soon as possible- we really would like to stay in the space, but with no electricity, gas, water (or back door!) it's not exactly functional.
Anyway, pics are posted on my facebook:

Does anybody know if/how you can get the smell of smoke out of an amp?
