If you had remembered my posting that first mentioned it, I had already
said "There were some 78s there but not like the Jazz Bash we had in New
Jersey last week."  The question had already been answered the first
time the Austin show was mentioned.

Yes, before visiting Fort Nauck you must make sure that he has disarmed
the machine gun emplacements, tied down the attack dogs, and lowered the
drawbridge over the alligator-filled moat. (Just kidding.  Kurt is a
real nice guy, has a new haircut, but does need to know in advance that
company is coming.)
