	10:00pm Uncle Michael: Otis, my man...err cat!
	10:00pm Little Danny: Hey mate, hey homers
	10:01pm Little Danny: Go Otis go!
	10:03pm Kris Holmes: Hi guys!
	10:06pm coelacanth∅: greetings Kris and all
	10:08pm Misachal: Is it too early for Skynrd?
	10:08pm Uncle Michael: Kris, on the episode of Brokenwood I watched last night, one of the characters said "I felt an egg." I understood him!
	10:08pm Little Danny: OMG Misa
	10:09pm Misachal: Asking for a friend.
	10:10pm coelacanth∅: never heard that version of is it because i'm black; and never before thought there was a slight similarity between that song and "we Love all" from sly & the family stone's first album.
	10:10pm Little Danny: Thought you were going for a S.A. set for a bit there, Kris
	10:10pm Kris Holmes: just the first two 45s in this box lol
	10:11pm Kris Holmes: ha at "EGG" Michael
	10:11pm coelacanth∅: (i have, however, considered before the possibility that i'm crazy)
	10:11pm Kris Holmes: never too early for Skynyrd
	10:12pm still b/p: Skynrd: Is It Because I’m Red-n _ _ _?
	10:13pm Kris Holmes: i can't place that Sly track, will have to youtube later
	10:13pm Sean B.: Kris, glad to be here.
	10:14pm Doug Schulkind: I like the way you operate, Dr. Holmes.
	10:19pm coelacanth∅: Kris i may be wrong about which album it's on. and i've got some sly albums on cds too so it may be a "bonus track". ...anyway i'm probably way off about the similarity. (great track though you might check it out anyway)
	10:21pm coelacanth∅: Haha Doug i just caught that!
	10:21pm still b/p: I like when “yeggs” shows up in old films and comics.
	10:24pm MrFab: Hi all, where ya at? (as they greet each other in Louisiana) I loves me some N'Awlins sounds. Stuff like "Big Chief" isn't really r'n'b in the typical sense, it's got that unique feel and second line rhythm. Surprised no one's really created a genre name for it.
	10:24pm geezerette: Feel like struttin' with some etouffee.
	10:29pm coelacanth∅: i hear that's the newest dance craze - the etouffee strut
	10:29pm Kris Holmes: heh, there's a record in that
	10:31pm geezerette: !!! :D
	10:31pm Little Danny: Huh. This sounds like Bobby Byrd on Brownstone
	10:32pm coelacanth∅: hey MrF where y'at mule?!
	10:33pm MrFab: Passin' a good time.
	10:34pm Little Danny: Also known as the "Tan Nightingale," too!
	10:34pm coelacanth∅: (most of my creole learnins come from Dr. John)
	10:36pm MrFab: We could all learn a lot from Dr John. The man's a walking repository of NOLA culture.
	10:38pm Uncle Michael: I heard this song at the dentist's today. No lie.
	10:39pm coelacanth∅: i learned a bit about new orleans culture from a Tom Robbins book too. (jitterbug perfume) weirdly my second reference to that author tonight.
	10:39pm Little Danny: @Kris: Does Misa genuinely like Lynyrd Skynyrd, or is she just trolling you?
	10:40pm Misachal: Sorry guys. My husband loves me, but also cant get jokes sometimes.
	10:41pm Little Danny: Well well well
	10:41pm Kris Holmes: Misa genuinely loves LS, as do I.
	10:41pm coelacanth∅: hahaha!
	10:41pm Uncle Michael: My dentist has no sense of humor either.
	10:42pm Misachal: He just came in gave gave me devils horns and yelled SKYNRD!!!
	10:42pm Kris Holmes: I opened the bedroom door & turned the volume up for her btw, so she isn't just commenting without listening lol
	10:43pm Uncle Michael: I'd have waited and closed the show with Tuesday's Gone.
	10:44pm coelacanth∅: 'skynard had some moments. (freebird and sweet home alabama notwithstanding)
	10:44pm Kris Holmes: she will probably be sleeping by the close of the show though
	10:46pm Uncle Michael: No one wants to see me shake my mini.
	10:49pm still b/p: When a friend is playing and asks for requests, and some yegg in the back yells out you-know-what, ohhhh, she gets clenchy and murder-eyed.
	10:51pm Kris Holmes: hahaha, I play it!!!
	10:51pm MrFab: But Uncle Michael, I thought size didn't matter?
	10:51pm Little Danny: @still b/p: "clenchy and murder-eyed" is so great
	10:52pm northguineahills: Just got back from a meet and greet for a political candidate for the Gainesville City Commission. She's a young African-American woman who just moved here from Ft. Greene, Brooklyn. She was preaching to this choir.
	10:53pm Dean: Frankly, I think we should hope for candidates who disturb every choir.
	10:54pm geezerette: This show, such a party! Everybody shake whatcha got! NGH, gonna campaign for her?
	10:58pm northguineahills: I know the some of the kids of Skynyrd (grew up w/ them). I was friends w/ Van Zant's daughter and Pyle's son. (I grew up outside of Jacksonville, FL). Oh the stories I have I used to hate Skynyrd until i moved to NYC, and something from the cultural ambience was missing (Skynyrd was played everywhere growing up). Once I listened to them on there own merit, I actually liked them. And Yes, Ronnie was buried w/ a Neil Young tee (people kept breaking into his crypt in [in my hometown of Orange Park] to check to see if he was wearing the shirt, they had to move his remains to an undisclosed location.)
	10:59pm northguineahills: @geezerette: I put a sign out for her in my yard.
	10:59pm coelacanth∅: sbp yeh it's a bit worn out by now! but it's better than someone yelling "more cowbell!" -aside from the joke being old and based on a skit that wasn't that funny in the first place; someone's going to take it to heart, and play more, and louder cowbell.
	11:02pm MrFab: Ha, thought I was the only one who appreciated this oddity. And geezerette, you talking party? Well, I got me a rum n coke going as we speak.
	11:02pm geezerette: This is the most NOLA Coasters I've ever heard.
	11:02pm coelacanth∅: hmm when's that coasters song from?
	11:04pm coelacanth∅: (damn, i could use a rum n coke)
	11:04pm geezerette: MrFab: Cheers!
	11:05pm Dean: Man, used to listen regularly to JO on KPFK in LA. Great show.
	11:06pm geezerette: Incredible!
	11:07pm still b/p: I’m gonna say no one heard this at the dentist today.
	11:08pm coelacanth∅: play a couples dance number so i can go get a drink, will ya?
	11:12pm Uncle Michael: Monarchs records are insane.
	11:13pm Kris Holmes: yeah, i have two & they are both great!
	11:21pm Uncle Michael: Keep the faith, Kris. I'm pushing the keyboard away.
	11:21pm Kris Holmes: goodnight Michael
	11:28pm Little Danny: This Freddy O'Quinn is awesome. Crankin' up my lo-fi right now!
	11:30pm Kris Holmes: it's crazy
	11:31pm Little Danny: You should look up an image of the P/S that went with that 45. It's also crazy
	11:32pm Kris Holmes: yeah, i have the pic saved somewhere
	11:33pm Kris Holmes: he looks super dapper but also kind of psycho
	11:37pm Kris Holmes: the hair though, a wig? gotta be?
	11:38pm Little Danny: I was wondering that myself. Gotta be an ill-fitting wig
