"Speaking of fats, they rescued Fats Domino today..."

Do you have link to a story? The man's a cultural treasure and could help restore the soul after any rebuilding... This is my first FREEP question, BTW.

Here's a FREEP answer, BTW.


FROM WWL SITE EARLIER TODAY and I find no other update from that page

1:09 P.M. - (AP): The singer known for "Blueberry Hill" and "Ain't That A Shame" has been missing since Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans.

His agent says Fats Domino planned to ride out the storm at his house in a low-lying area of the city with his wife and daughter.

Al Embry says he spoke with Domino Sunday night by phone, but hasn't been able to contact him since. Embry says he would think Domino is safe because "somebody said he was on top of the balcony."

Domino is 77 and has rarely appeared in public in recent years.
