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.

@WR: There is QA/QC (why you get a reinterview) and many places, the units may have been recorded twice in the original canvassing (back last winter). due to typological error.
Avatar 11:42pm
northguineahills:

then there is the fact instead of starting in April, nothing started in-situ until July, and due to the situation, many people have moved. It's very confusing.
Avatar 11:44pm
Kris Holmes:

Yeah, it sucks :( Humor is my way of dealing with being terrified about being in a classroom with kids & having had several acquaintances pass away from it. I am in no way diminishing the seriousness of the situation. Just the ridiculousness of everything right now.
