	♥ 10:02pm Little Danny: Hey Kris!
	10:03pm Kris Holmes: Hey Dan!
	♥ 10:04pm coelacanth∅: hello Kris and Danny and Holmies taking the long way so arriving eventually
	♥ 10:05pm Little Danny: Howdy Coel!
	10:06pm Kris Holmes: Hi Coel
	♥ 10:10pm Little Danny: Love this Trini
	10:11pm Kris Holmes: Yep it may be my fave of his
	♥ 10:12pm Little Danny: My fave will forever be "The Search Goes On"
	♥ 10:21pm Little Danny: Ha. I knew this Lively Set would get some play. Still regret dumping my G copy some years back.
	10:22pm Kris Holmes: Damn, you had it?
	♥ 10:23pm Little Danny: Yeah. Found at Bussey's flea market!
	10:24pm Kris Holmes: Wow, you sold it or threw it out because of condition?
	♥ 10:25pm Little Danny: Sold it for around $150 on eBay
	10:26pm Kris Holmes: ok, so that's the 6th known copy.....
	10:27pm Kris Holmes: Noel tracked the master reel & there is a reissue out next month
	♥ 10:28pm Little Danny: That Vera Lee was great!
	10:29pm Kris Holmes: The flip is a nice deep ballad. I think it's fairly unknown San Antonio soul
	10:35pm Kris Holmes: But yeah, I had a stroke when i looked up that Lively Set 45......not totally recovered yet
	♥ 10:37pm Little Danny: Can definitely understand that reaction
	10:39pm Dean: Ah, shoot, I missed the Big Jay. (I've been listening to David Ware just now.) Have to relate a story about BJM. During the early '90s he was working for the USPS in LA. To exercise his chops he held a regular gig at Rim Ram in Santa Fe Springs, near Whittier where I lived. We'd go to his gigs at the restaurant/bar and just marvel at his and his band's work. Buddies of mine sat in on one show. Not long thereafter, he revived his career, and earned a glowing review in the NYT. Best New Year's Eve ever for me was at Rim Ram, with BJM playing, and a bunch of exchange students from Sweden--they were staying with another buddy of mine--in attendance!
	10:39pm Kris Holmes: awesome story
	♥ 10:40pm Little Danny: So cool, Dean
	♥ 10:41pm Little Danny: Love that he worked at the post office
	10:42pm Dean: Dude just turned 91, too, one day after my mom turned 91, late April.
	♥ 10:47pm Cubs Win: Good evening.
	10:49pm Kris Holmes: Hi Michael! Wish I could post "Dodgers Win" more often this year :(
	♥ 10:50pm Little Danny: Yes! Yes! Yes! "I Had a Dream"!
	♥ 10:50pm Uncle Michael: Sorry, Kris. Cubs are scuffling too. Won two after getting swept by the Cardinals. At least I got to see Molina's testicle explode.
	10:51pm Kris Holmes: Sports is hell
	♥ 10:53pm coelacanth∅: that cover of money was Barbara Lynn good! - Dean what David Ware were you diggin'?
	10:55pm Kris Holmes: Yep her version is definitely up there for me
	10:56pm Dean: Godspellized
	10:57pm Dean: Er, one L. Godspelized.
	11:02pm northguineahills: Only took 20 mins for my laptop to wake up to get to the comments board (been able to listen). Bo Diddley, now a home town hero.
	11:03pm northguineahills: UM: NSFW (not at work, thankfully any more).
	♥ 11:05pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, I probably shouldn't mention Yadier Molina in polite company, ever.
	♥ 11:07pm coelacanth∅: damn computer quit right before Nathaniel Mayer and i got it streaming again just in time to miss it completely. fucking bullshit.
	♥ 11:11pm coelacanth∅: Dean if i remember correctly that's one of two David Ware albums that i tried for a long time to get but never found for less than a prohibitive amount of money.
	11:12pm Dean: "damn computer quit..." And yet we lionize Vint Cerf, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, and the rest of those dicks.
	11:12pm Dean: Can't remember where I acquired it, but I know it was long ago.
	11:13pm northguineahills: I never saw Bo Diddley play live, but I've seen him person twice. Once on the street, and once at the mall out of all places (college roommate at the time pointed him out, I'm usually oblivious to my surroundings).
	11:14pm Dean: Saw Bo Diddley when he opened for the Clash in Santa Monica, '79-ish.
	♥ 11:16pm coelacanth∅: i'll get that one day Dean. i've heard most of it and really wanted it but couldn't spend >$100. for it. i knew him personally too but wouldn't have asked him for it. stupid me obviously i should have.
	♥ 11:17pm Uncle Michael: gotta crash, folks...keep the tunes coming, Kris...and thanks
	11:17pm Dean: Yow, knew David Ware?! That's remarkable. Sorry he's gone.
	♥ 11:20pm coelacanth∅: 'night UM Dean he used to shop at the store i managed and his wife was a client and friend as well, and my sushi buddy, since David was a strict vegetarian.
	♥ 11:21pm coelacanth∅: makes me very sad. the terrible fact is that he never found out (unless he did after he died) how into his music i was. ...rest in peace.
	♥ 11:26pm coelacanth∅: that WAS Amazing!
	♥ 11:48pm Little Danny: Great show tonight Kris!
	11:49pm Kris Holmes: Thanks Dan!
	11:54pm Carmichael: Heya Kris.
	11:55pm Kris Holmes: Hey, great timing hahaha
	11:56pm northguineahills: Danks, Kris, Time for me to take the recycling out!
	♥ 11:57pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Kris! good night all.
	11:58pm Kris Holmes: Thanks everyone
	11:59pm northguineahills: Can't get enough of the Honey Drippers, gracias!
