I just heard about the fire this morning as my good friend Akim lives on the top floor. He is a performance artist under the name Akim Funk Buddha and has performed at such venues as BAM cafe and Joe's Pub. He had all of his costumes in the apartment, and seeing as making it in a recession as a performer is really tough, I know that he is going to need a lot of support to get through this. His website is www.akimfunkbuddha.org. I am going over tonight to see what can be saved!
