Looks like my 2X is down the road a bit! But I'll get it then and in plenty of time for Nashville. Geez, now they added Chattanooga. Don't think I can hit that one, too. Looking at going up through N.C. and D.C. |

Yes, I'm going to pass on Chatanooga, also. If they were swinging west to Memphis, instead of east, I would figure out a way to go, because I want to meet up with NoTicketDonna. Here that Donna? Sometime in the future, you are going to get a Big Ol' Crabby hug!
(That sounds like Thanksgiving with your cranky old Aunt _____! You fill in your family member's name.) |

I wonder what is on the back of the t-shirt?
Men's small - sure, I can fit that. I launder it up and pray, it shrinks! 
Also must pass on Chatanooga. I got a Prine Glow heavenly shining from Vancouver - geez, can't ya see it?

I like it!
It made me think ... I'm pretty sure none of my kids have a clue what a '45' is! Remember those bright yellow discs that used to snap into the middle of them so they'd fit on the turntable spindle? Did those things even have a name? |

I remember those! That sound like something John T. would know. |

Was not the yellow disk, called an adapter?

Maybe that was it. I always thought it was the 'center piece' - until Martha Stewart made that into something much bigger! |

My first record player had an adapter (about the size of a cardboard toilet paper tube) that you could put something like 10 45s on. After one would finish playing another would drop down and start playing automatically. Eventually I upgraded to an 8 Track player!

If my memory serves me correctly, I had that toilet paper tube on the second record player. Never did have an 8 Track player. Geez, we do not even have a cd player in the old van. It is ok, I can receive two radio stations while driving to the general store. Neither of which play Prine.
Geez, SE - ya got me wondering - what did Martha do to make it bigger? My next question - has John Prine ever been on The Martha Stewart Show?  They could bake up some enchiladas! She's a bit older than our Johnny, so I am certain she would know of the 45's, 78's, and of course the toilet paper tube.
Oh, I can see it now - making them enchiladas, Martha sportin' the new Prine shirt...talking about adapters...John talking about everyreadys...

We too had one of those 'tube' devices for the Hi-Fi that you could stack 45's on, and our portable RCA Victor record player had a little piece that just twisted up to accommodate a 45. I guess those were both 'pre' "center pieces".
And, my mom had an 8 track player (my brother left it) - but only one 8 track cassette - by Roger Whittaker, that she played all the time. Man - he was talented ... he could sing 2 completely different songs at the very same time...although one of them always sounded like background music.
JPP - Martha didn't actually make it bigger - she just took the words 'center piece' and made them mean 'something big and fancy that sits in the middle of a dinner table' - you know... 'the center piece'! In our house it's the salt and pepper shakers - probably not quite what she had in mind!

If Johnny ever does appear on Martha's show he could play "Christmas in Prison" for her!!!
