Even More on Noah and His Request

I was doing more research on Noah Biorkman and one of the requests his family has asked is that instead of sending gifts to add $1 to the card and they will donate the money to the University of Michigan Neuroblastoma Research program and the Michigan Make-A-Wish Foundation.

A dollar - and a card -- and not only do you make Noah's wish come true you may save the lives of the Noah's to come and make another dying child's wish come true.

That is the best Christmas present you can give - EVER!… Continue

Kelsey ordered the Sheer Funk Album and sent this email -

In some respects this seems typical, but I can never get enough of it. No matter how you got to this site or whether or not you buy cds, etc., to know that Spencer's music and art have had a positive effect on someone's life really warms me up!

Hi Mr. Bell,

Thank you for such a timely order! I don't know if it is normal or not to reply to these messages or not but I have something I wanted to tell you.

There is no need to thank me! I love Spencer's music, his poetry, and what he

Selling the bracelets

We have a huge supply of bracelets from Nashville and are hoping to add more that are specific to SBL. If you are going to a 100 Monkeys concert and want some Spencer bracelets to sell, please contact me.

If you make the bracelets, I would like to add to our Spencer or find a cure/cure cancer specific ones as well so definitely contact me if you make some of those to sell.

"The Ties We've Tied" by friend, Nora Byrnes

I met Spencer in 2004 when he moved out to New York. A group of us, including most of the guys who would who later make up the Stevedores, lived together that summer in a rundown house just north of the city. I was twenty and remember feeling very old and wise and world weary, perceptions Spencer would gleefully derail. In contrast, he was animated and impatient and fearless and I found it impossible to sustain a convincing tormented affectation when he was around. Most of the time I couldContinue

Fundraising?

I was talking to Bill about this a while ago and he said I should share it with all of you.

My little cousin Melina is thirteen, and she suffers from a type of cancer called Neuroblastoma. About 600 kids are diagnosed with it each year. It is a form of childhood cancer that is common mostly in babies and small children. Melina has had it since she was eight years old. She has been to four di… Continue

Some Spencer Bell in my daily life stories

A funny Marvin Gaye one: my friend Jazzy is in love with live and wasted, since she's had it that's all that is playing in her car. her didn't want her driving to a show we were going to on Halloween. So they picked me up and Jazzy said her dad really loved the monkey song and turned it up and made her happy. When Marvin Gaye came on she skipped it. We went to her house got ready and then when we went to the show her parents were going to drop us off and then see a movie come back and get us.

Nashville. :)

I'm leaving for Nashville Wednesday morning... (can't wait to see Willow again and meet Angie!) ...I will pack and do all that marvelous stuff when I wake up... (I still haven't unpacked from my 10 days in Vegas in mid-October... and before that? I hadn't unpacked from the Legacy show up in MI in August. You might say I'm the queen of procrastination... I'm sure there's someone out there that does it better than me, however.)

Anyways, bringing the camera, of course and I can't wait to share pho… Continue
