Kris Holmes's avatar View Kris Holmes's profile Favoriting

Twenty years of dusty fingers, frayed cuticles, & upper respiratory infections — from record digging and DJing around the globe — coalesces into a 2-hour journey through Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Latin, Rock & Roll, and all points in between. Your speakers will be head-nodding, toe-tapping & even two-stepping to this vintage 45rpm party in no time. Hear favorite songs you didn't know were your favorites, aural treats & record-world problems from the vinyl side of life.

A tornado hit right across the river from me two hours ago but it kept going East along the river before crossing and hitting some areas on my side of the river but not that close to me.

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26pm
Matt from New Orleans:

I have a few friends who moved to Arabi and thankfully all of them seemed to avoid the tornado but one friend heard it and said it was terrifyingly loud so he must have been close. He didn’t go outside to see how close.

The movie is mediocre. I can’t say it’s terrible but definitely not good. I think there were interesting angles to explore with the concept of the film but the writing/acting lack subtlety.
