Patterson Hood , of Drive-By Truckers , talks about Nuçi's Space in Flagpole magazine ...
"I can't say enough about what Nuçi's Space has done for the community.
It seems like it ought to be used and supported even more than it is. I think a lot of people just don't know what they do; they think it's just this funny little, blue building down the hill."
In that funny, little blue building at the corner of Oconee and Williams streets, not only can local musicians book inexpensive rehearsal time, find a music instructor, nose through the center's library and get an axe repaired, they can also schedule physical examinations by an M.D. and get referrals for low-cost mental health services. Ironically, all this goodness was borne out of the suicide of the founder's son, Nuçi Phillips. (November 1, 2006, Flagpole - Gretchen Wood)
What changes would you like to see in the rehearsal rooms?
