The August issue of the Smithsonian Magazine with the Bo Diddley article is out -- they sent copies last week.
Articles for the Oxford American, a literary mag from Faulkner country, one on the story of how The World That Made New Orleans came to be written, for August, and then another one for their annual music issue.
Next week he'll be interviewed for an hour on a New Orleans A.M radio station, about TWTMNO by Errol LaBorde, editor of New Orleans Magazine, and author of the book Krewe.
He's writing and producing "A Shoutout to New Orleans," for AfroPop Worldwide.
An article in Downbeat about jazz in present-day New Orleans.
Sub-conducting for the performance of Rhys Chatham's Crimson Grail, at Lincoln Center, August 15th. The instrumentation is 200 electric guitars and 16 electric basses. It will be loud.
Some not quite yet officially confirmed radio work concerning a Latin music project, so no specifics yet, though it is real.
Other stuff will show up, maybe.

I've been working with the transcription of the interviews done in NO last week, re where individuals and their professions were when Katrina hit, how it affected them, where they are now. This is mostly for the AfroPop show.
The interviews are heartbreaking.
So much has been lost.
Though in terms of tourism, the city is really picking up. Jazz Fest was very, very, very good this year, and even now, in the middle of the summer, there are so many out-of-towners present.
Love, C.
