Community Bail Funds

i love seeing the boosting of bail funds for protesters that are going around right now. i wanted to share a list of (US) community bail funds that are always in need of donations and support. please consider making small, regular donations to a bail fund local to you in order to support your community fight an unjust, corrupt legal system. and please share!

(full directory is here and i’ve specified whether the fund is for pre-trial or immigration services, if the name of the fund doesn’t already do that!)

Rock Operas: Rocky Horror Show

So "Over at the Frankenstein Place", we find Richard O'Brien, the creator of The Rocky Horror Show. This rock musical with hits including Time Warp, Sweet Transvestite, Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me, and I Can Make You A Man has been a crowd favorite ever since it's first appearance as a musical in Royal Court Theatre in Sloane Square, in Chelsea, London. After only two performances, record producer Jonathan King signed the actors to make a cast recording. From then on, it had 2.960 other performances at the theatre, before branching out to have over 30 productions worldwide. A movie rendition, called The Rocky Horror Picture Show, really gained popularity for the show, with thousands of people going to see the movie worldwide. Over 30 cast recordings of were produced, and the musical won the 1973 Evening Standard Award for Best Musical, and the 2001 Theatre World Award for Best Musical. It was nominated for other awards, such as the 1975 Tony Award for Best Lighting Design and the 2001 for the Best Revival of a Musical.

It's hard to believe That there's nobody out there It's hard to believe That I'm all alone At least I have her love The city she loves me Lonely as I am Together we cry I don't ever want to feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way I don't ever want to feel Like I did that day Take me to the place I love Take me all the way (yeah yeah) Ooh no (no no yeah yeah) Love me I say yeah yeah Under the bridge downtown Is were I drew some blood Under the bridge downtown I could not get enough Under the bridge downtown Forgot about my love Under the bridge downtown I gave my life away (yeah yeah) Ooh no (no no yeah yeah) Here I stay yeah yeah Here I stay

Under The Bridge- Red Hot Chili Peppers

This song came off of the Red Hot Chili Peppers album Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magik , and this particular song is about Anthony's struggles with the drug Mario, and how he used to take it under a bridge in LA. He felt really alone at the time, and, as it says in the song, he felt that the city was his only friend. He wrote this as he was walking along.
