But for current locals, the tone is much bleaker, as several artists --
like so many other residents of the now completely evacuated city --
are coming to terms with losing everything. Alt-folk singer-songwriter
Ani DiFranco, who evacuated earlier this week, was too distraught to
talk. "Ani is devastated," says her spokesperson, "as she's had a lot
of damage to her home in the French Quarter, including the loss of her
new album."
I believe she did lots of her studio work in N.O.
