I've mentioned in a few places about gigging with some guys from the "day-job". We've played a high profile Holiday Party for the last few years and I wanted to post something from that.

We say it outloud for those who celebrate Christmas: "Merry Christmas" (and especially to Reham, who argues we shouldn't get hung up about being too PC). For those who don't celebrate Santa or Christ or gift giving, or whatever ... happy all the rest!
