Title: 24 Dec 2014: it's... Christmas Rush
Post by: RGMike on December 24, 2014, 09:42:39 AM
Still  no clue; didn't hear anything about a "Xmas Card". I'm out the door here at 10, so whatever it is I'll miss it.

Whatever it is, I don't expect it to have any holiday wishes from the Fogheads, since she didn't solicit any contributions. But that's gotta be kind of labor-intensive, so can't blame her.

Enjoying Hey-Ya while waiting for the set to start. Far preferable to Milky Chance or any of the other overplayed currents.

That's who it sounds like to me. Big ups for two songs we haven't heard much of (or at all) in past Xmas 10@10s.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, Pretenders (or Chrissie)

I like the bittersweet vibe of this version a lot.  For those of you who haven't heard the story, the song was originally somewhat of a downer!

Backatcha, Geoff. I just saw the Reese Witherspoon movie Wild and thought of you -- you'll know why when you see it.

That's one of the movies I hope to see over the holidays (the others being The Imitation Game and Big Eyes, and we'll see about the Interview -- it's supposed to be opening tomorrow at a couple theaters in Portland, but it's down my list a bit, kerfuffle or no).

Btw, I saw Foxcatcher last weekend while I was up in Seattle and really enjoyed it. Steve Carell is all but unrecognizable, and very un-Carell-like. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)
