Will Dockery & Julie Pooley at Doo-Nanny
Just head down 431 from Phenix City to Seale Alabama. Follow the signs or just ask somebody.
"I could tell you about The Bibb City Ramblers and how they brought out the hoe-down, East Georgia style on Saturday afternoon quickly followed by The Shadowville Allstars and their insane menagerie of pickers, strummers, drummers, bangers, trumpeters, trombonists, chanters, singers, freaks, faux-Indian dancers and I forget all what. I wish I could capture with words the colorful costumed cacophony of chaos that rolled from the both levels of the double-decker stage out to the performance area and up the hill to the kitchen and on out over the pond before it dissipated into the ether, never ever to be reproduced. (You just can’t recapture the magic of an organic improve performance.) I was thrilled to be able to bond with all the folks who made the trip down to Seale all the way from Asheville, NC — my childhood home town. I was even more thrilled to be able to point out to the Asheville peeps that the weirdest thing on stage bar none was an act from Columbus, GA — my adopted forever-home." -Katy Clyde

Just Stop The War![]
"Just Stop The War!" is a song and fundraising recording and video recorded by the members of the Columbus, Georgia/Phenix City, Alabama music scene in 2010. It was written by Basil Fitzpatrick and recorded at Rick Edwards' studio in Phenix City.
An idea for the creation of an American anti-war fundraiser came from Army veteran and guitarist Basil Fitzpatrick, and Rick Edwards was instrumental in bringing the vision to reality. Several musicians were contacted by the pair, before Fitzapatrick sat down to the task of writing the song. Following several months of perfecting the anthem, Fitzpatrick completed the writing of "Just Stop The War!" one night before the song's first recording session, in early 2010. The historic event brought together some of the best performer in the Columbus/Phenix City music scene of that time.

The way I did it was I mailed two copies of the CD, which In think was their instruction, which are filed at the Library of Congress.
This way, the entire package is covered, from the songs, lyrics, cover art. Again, I think the Copyright Office folks suggest thisn is the best way, rather than paying for each song individually.

- ↑ alt.zines review of felt from January 7 1996
felt, 50c postpaid. Minicomic, eight pages. William Dockery, P.O. Box xxxx, Phenix City, Alabama 36868. On the back cover of this tome is written the words, "Second Printing." I was going to joke that with Dockery, this means my copy is not only the second printing but the second copy. However, this damn thing is actually very well written. Maybe he did actually print more than one copy in the first printing, and sold out! felt begins poorly, but picks up at the top of page four. Then things really get going at the bottom of page four, and the lines roll on through thunderous poetic crescendoes right to the end. There are amazing images here; Tatumville park, the memory of Tracy, the father who's "a grey cat," even a lake of disappearing paths. I highly recommend this chapbook on two counts, as a stunning book of poems and as a sample of the best the comics small press has to offer. -Andrew Roller, January 7 1996 in alt.zines
