Fats Domino (who I thought died with the Big Bopper and Richie Valens) is missing..
Fats and his career (which has been missing for years now) brillantly deduced the idea to ride out a type 5 huricane by hunkering down in the lowest place below sea level in the Bayou area.
Asked for comment on his atom splitting idea, Fats could not be located. Cops have searched Blueberry hill to no avail...
Reports of Fats trying to loot the careers of Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder in the after math have proven false.
Passing a police sketch around New Orleans has also turned up nothing..
A large overweight african american possible carrying tons on jewelry and food has been impossible to find....
Fats if you are out there drop us a line huh

(all written tongue firmly in cheek) (I hope all with families down there find them safe.. even Fats!!)

FD Stayed at his home in NEw Orleans and he and his family had to be rescued from his rooftop. He is now in a shelter here in Baton Rouge.

Word has it that the Neville Family's multimillion dollar recording studio, Neville-Nevilleland, on Canal St. has been totally destroyed.

So the Neville Brothers won't be able to put out any new music for a while? Well at least something good came of all this.

Fats Domino apparently rescued by boat

JAKE COYLE

Associated Press


NEW YORK - Fats Domino apparently rode out the hurricane in his New Orleans home and was rescued by boat from his flooded neighborhood, his daughter Karen Domino White said Thursday.

The 77-year-old R&B legend had been reported missing Thursday by his longtime agent, Al Embry, and his niece, Checquoline Davis.

White said late Thursday that she saw a photograph of her father that had been taken Monday by the New Orleans Times-Picayune. The photo showed Domino, whose real name is Antoine Domino, in jeans and a blue-striped shirt being helped off a boat by rescuers.

"We're very relieved," White said in a telephone interview.

White said she has been unable to speak to Domino and had no information on his wife, Rosemary, or any other family members in the flooded city.

Domino, who has rarely appeared in public in recent years, has a home in the 9th ward, a low-lying area of the flooded city. On Sunday night, Embry said he spoke over the phone to Domino, who told him that he planned to remain in New Orleans despite the order to evacuate.

Getting information on possible missing persons has been nearly impossible as phone lines for hospitals and police haven't been working.

Domino has sold more than 110 million records in his long career, including the legendary singles "Blueberry Hill" and "Ain't That a Shame."

His 1950 recording of "The Fat Man" is sometimes called the first real rock 'n' roll record. He was among the first honorees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I think I read or saw on TV yesterday that Fats left the shelter and is now staying at the apartment of one of LSU's running backs.
