View Kris Holmes's profile |
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.

I went a while ago during the show to check the opening scene of There Will Be Blood, to see if it was a suitable metaphor for digging for records in the mud. And what's another famous moment and line in that movie? "I drink your milkshake!"

Humidity is really noticed when you return to it, but when I was in West Texas...hot was just hot, and you still burned your fingers on the car ignition's metal, regardless of dryness.
(Hey, Merriam-Webster is including "irregardless," and catching shit for it.
